Tenkasi district administration has warned crusher unit and stone quarry owners that their licences and registrations will be cancelled if they are found smuggling construction aggregates to Kerala in violation of the ban on inter-State transportation of minerals.

NTK chief coordinator Seeman announced on Thursday that he would contest the upcoming Ambasamudram by-poll and accept support from any party willing to back him. He said that his party would launch an intensive election campaign in Ambasamudram on November 27.
Seeman visited Tirunelveli to appear before the district court in connection with a sedition case. Addressing the media, he said the people of Tamil Nadu wanted him to enter the Assembly. “PMK’s Sowmiya Anbumani and DMDK’s Premalatha Vijayakanth are raising their voices strongly in the Assembly. If I enter the Assembly, TVK MLAs can no longer praise simply about Chief Minister C Joseph Vijay. The ruling TVK should contest without bribing voters. When mainstream parties, including the AIADMK and BJP, stayed away from the Erode East and Vikravandi bypolls during the DMK regime, the NTK fielded candidates against the ruling party. Even if the DMK and AIADMK do not field candidates in Ambasamudram, I will contest,” he said.
Asked whether he would be projected as a common candidate against the ruling TVK, Seeman said that he had always been a common candidate for people of all Tamil communities and religions. “We will accept support from any party,” he added. Responding to former MLA Esakki Subaya’s remark that Seeman would not contest in Ambasamudram as they were relatives, Seeman said, “I will contest even if BJP State president Nainar Nagendran, who is close to me, is fielded.” Asked about his chances of winning, Seeman pointed out that the ruling party had won the recent by-polls by narrow margins.

A working woman was denied boarding a TNSTC bus by its driver at night. She was to board the bus in Tirunelveli around 10 pm to reach her native Mukkudal, around 20 km away. Video shows the driver's reply to her husband, who was waiting to receive her at Mukkudal around 10.30 pm on Monday. Today, TNSTC deputy manager (commercial) said the driver ws suspended.
This kind of incidents happens in many places particularly in rural areas. When the DMK govt introduced free bus travel for women, drivers & conductors were furious, abused women in many places and gradually settled down. With the TVK govt expanding the scheme, such abuses have returned.

The Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) policy is expected to be approved at the Cabinet meeting chaired by Chief Minister C Joseph Vijay on Thursday.
Survey of India: Radhapuram GT station was constructed in 1868 and observed in 1869 and 1874 as part of the historic Great Trigonometrical Survey. The Rádhápuram Station formed an important part of the Cape Comorin Base Extension and was used as a principal triangulation station for establishing the geodetic framework of the region.
The Great Trigonometrical Survey was a monumental scientific achievement that laid the foundation for modern mapping in India. It contributed significantly to determining the curvature of the Earth and the dimensions of the Indian subcontinent with remarkable precision.
The preservation of GT Survey Station is essential for safeguarding our geodetic heritage, maintaining the accuracy and continuity of spatial data, and honoring the scientific legacy of one of the most ambitious surveying endeavors in history.
The GT Survey Station facilitates Geodetic and Geophysical studies, including monitoring of tectonic activity and land deformation.
TNIE Impact: Survey of India (SoI) has begun restoring a two-century-old Great Trigonometrical Survey (GT) station at Uthayathur village near Radhapuram. A team of SoI officials, including Officer Surveyor M Thayalan, and officials from State Survey Department visited the site and inaugurated the restoration works, which include repairing damaged portions, painting and fencing the structure. The @xpresstn had reported in July that the heritage GT station had been damaged by miscreants and that the surrounding land had been encroached upon by nearby landowners.

School Education Department scam allegedly turned children’s safety into bribe-generating business. Rules meant to protect students were allegedly exploited to extract money from pvt schools. When children’s safety becomes a means to generate bribes, corruption has crossed all limits.
Welcome move. Aggressive looting/quarrying in Tirunelveli & Tenkasi districts curbed over the past three months...valuable mineral deposits saved, roads became usable for the public & locals who were ignored by quarries could access minerals for local construction

With Anbil Mahesh’s arrest, the alleged ‘mutual understanding’ between DMK & AIADMK appears to have come to an end (subject to further cases & legal action). Will the TVK government also act against former AIADMK ministers facing corruption charges?
TVK Ministers are levelling serious corruption charges against the previous DMK government across almost all depts, including TASMAC, electricity & highways. However, if this government is truly concerned about recovering looted public money, it should register strong corruption cases against former rulers, just as the Jayalalithaa & Karunanidhi governments did in the past. We all know how the latter governments reached a mutual understanding & avoided filing serious cases against each other, despite repeated pressure from Arappor Iyakkam and court directions

Activists have demanded Tirunelveli @Collectortnv to protect British-era Great Trigonometrical Survey station at Radhapuram. They also said nearby landowners encroached upon much of the government land around the station
Tirunelveli District Survey Office has finally released a list of 16 Great Trigonometrical Survey (GT) stations for the first time amid allegations that the officials had failed to prevent individuals from damaging the two-century-old heritage structures and encroaching on government land surrounding them.
