Thrissur: Troubles continued for former CJI
KG Balakrishnan, who is now NHRC Chairman, with the survey
department concluding that his son-in-law and advocate PV
Sreenijan had allegedly encroached government land.
Following a complaint by president of Malayalavedi
State Committee George Vattukulam to the Mukundapuram
Tahasildar and the Executive Engineer (Irrigation) in February
last, the officials of the survey department had surveyed the
land under dispute recently and confirmed that it was
government land in possession of Sreenijan.
Vattukulam, a human rights activist, said here
today that the land allegedly encroached by Sreenijan at
Kalloor (Vadakkumuri) of Mukundapuram Taluk was over 32 cents.
The land under dispute adjacent to another plot of
land owned by the advocate, was on the bank of the river
Chalakudy, official sources said.
The survey department has sent a report to the revenue
department for any action deemed necessary, the sources said.
Vattukulam said he had pleaded in his complaints
that the encroached land should be recovered from Sreenijan
and that proper action should be initiated against the
guilty. Sreenijan already faces vigilance and tax probe over
allegations of amassing wealth.
