Sand Mafia In Tamil Nadu

In a big crackdown on the sand mafia in Tamil Nadu, the Enforcement Directorate is carrying out searches at over 40 locations across the state.

His battle against the mining mafia in the southern part of Tamil Nadu has led to death threats, says V Sundaram, a senior bureaucrat in Tamil Nadu. He alleges that repeated requests by him for security have been ignored by the state government.

In a dramatic crackdown on sand miners, the Tirupur Police in Tamil Nadu has seized more than 350 trucks that were allegedly carrying more than double the amount of sand they've been approved to carry.

A day after the sand mafia allegedly opened fire on officials probing illegal mining in Madhya Pradesh, a young man, who tried to stop illegal sand quarrying in Tamil Nadu's Tirunelevelli district, was run over by a mini-truck allegedly carrying illegal sand.
