T.N. bans Kerala tourists’ movement through Mulli

The Tamil Nadu government has banned the tourist movement from Kerala through Mulli in Attappady. The government has issued the ban order citing disturbances to animal movements because of tourist vehicles from Kerala.

Of late, there has been an increase in tourist vehicles from Kerala heading towards Manjoor, Ooty and Coonoor via Mulli because of the scenic beauty of that route. As much of the journey is through the jungle, a lot of animals are often seen along the route.
