A Division Bench of the Kerala High Court on Wednesday granted the State government two weeks’ time to file a comprehensive report on the Tanur boat accident and the measures taken to prevent such accidents in future.
The Bench led by Chief Justice S.V.N. Bhatti directed the State government to nominate the senior-most bureaucrat of the department concerned to assist the court in the case.
The court issued the directives when a suo motu case initiated in the wake of the boat tragedy came up for hearing. The government pleader sought time to file a detailed report regarding the boat tragedy.
