The Kerala High Court on Friday directed the state government to ensure the ex-gratia amounts are paid on time to the next of kin of those who died in the Wayanad landslide and the persons injured in the incident.
The direction was issued by a bench of Justices A K Jayasankaran Nambiar and Preeta A K, which also sought a report from the government on when the work at the construction site was stopped and why the workers were present there if all activity had been put on hold there.
