The Kerala government that has initiated
resumption of land in the illegal possession of Harrisons Malayalam Ltd (HML),
has directed the officials not to allow cutting of trees or grant possession
certificates for the holdings of the Company. The Special Officer, appointed as
per the directive of the High Court to resume the land from HML, issued the
directions to all the village and Taluk officers.
In the direction, the officials have been asked not to allow any
change in the tenure of the land, such as leasing, ownership change or
otherwise. The transfer of lands should also be not allowed, the directive
specifies.
The officials in the village and Taluk offices have been
instructed to report all illegal actions on the part of the HML to the Special
officer, highly placed officials said. ''Any action that is against the
proceedings should be intimated to the Special Officer by the concerned
officers, including the Forest officials,'' the sources said. They also said
that the company should get prior permission of the Special Officer with regard
to any issues related to the plantations.
