MADURAI: Restraining the authorities from draining water from the Madakulam irrigation tank in Madurai till June 30, unless natural urgency arises, the Madras high court has allowed members of a cooperative society to harvest natural fish from the tank.
The court was hearing the public interest litigation (PIL) filed by M Paranikumar challenging the order passed by the fisheries department permitting the society to harvest natural fish in the tank till June 30.
