Leader of the Opposition V.D. Satheesan slammed perceived attempts by the government to misinterpret the High Court’s decision to permit land survey for the K-Rail (Silverline) semi high-speed railway project.
He said the court had only allowed the government to conduct the survey as part of the ongoing study to gauge the social impact of the mega scheme.
The order did not endorse the LDF’s contentious mass rapid transport infrastructure development programme.
