South Kashmir: Seeman has strongly condemned the incident in which 4 people were killed after a lorry carrying mineral resources collided in Tenkasi.
In a statement issued by Nam Tamilar Party Chief Coordinator Seeman, “The news of the death of 4 people, including a child, when a cargo lorry carrying minerals collided in Kutukkal Valasai area of Tenkasi district is deeply saddening. Appropriate action should be taken against the owner of the lorry along with compensation to the deceased.
While the looting of minerals is increasing day by day in Tamil Nadu, especially in the Western Ghats, violations of the vehicles that carry them are also going on at a high rate. Many such accidents are happening in Kumari district as well. This tragic accident happened today in Tenkasi.
It is highly reprehensible that the government is making fun of these vehicles which are transporting mineral resources in excess of the specified limit and ignoring the road traffic regulations, and the capitalists who are involved in mineral theft without taking any action.
While Nam Tamil Party is constantly insisting that no development should take place in the Western Ghats, the failure to properly implement even the existing regulations shows the government’s lack of governance. Therefore, strict action should be taken against the owners of cargo trucks indulging in such traffic violations without further delay,” Seeman stressed.
