The Kerala High Court has asked the Idukki District Collector to appear before it online on October 24 on the issue of legal and illegal title deeds of holdings in Munnar.
The court issued the direction on a petition moved by One Earth One Life, an NGO, seeking to curb land encroachments and illegal constructions in Munnar.
Though the Idukki District Collector had been assigned election duty in a north Indian State, the Kerala High Court stayed it. The Collector shall continue in the post for six months, a Division Bench of the court orally observed on Tuesday.
