>Thiruvananthapuram: The Congress-led UDF government on Wednesday decided to cancel the in principle approval for land reclamation for the projects of Methran Kayal Ecotourism and Kadamakkudi Medicityin Kottayam and Ernakulam districts respectively. The decision is apparently following widespread protests against the approval. The Cabinet has ordered the Revenue department to revoke the sanctions. On Tuesday, the High Court had ordered maintenance of status quo by all parties concerned in the matter. The order was issued by Justice A Mohammed Mustaq considering a plea filed by paddy cultivater N K Alexander against the sanction given by the government to a private developer to use 378 acres of paddy land at Methran Kayal Padasekharam in Kumarakom for the ecotourism project The petitioner submitted that he owns 7.8 hectares of paddy land in the village and that such a project coming up would have an adverse impact on his agriculture activities This area falls in Ramsar site as protected wetland. The project, presently protrayed as an eco-tourism project, is an ultra-luxury five star hotel and resorts. Any activity other than paddy cultivation would affect his rights, he said. Along with the ecotourism project, the state government had also given in principle clearance for reclamation of 47 acres of paddy fields for medicity project at Kadamakkudi in Ernakulam. The 2000 cr-Kumarakom project was planned by Rak Indo Developers Private Ltd.
