Coke provides housing to Tsunami-affected in TN

Sanjeev Ramachandran / Colachel July 09, 2008, 0:15 IST Coca-Cola recently handed over 41 houses to Tsunami survivors in this part of South India. This gesture was not an isolated one. It has been followed by two other projects providing livelihood to thousands of fishermen in tsunami-hit zones. These measures come amidst poor public opinion of the company in the area after the prolonged battle that the panchayat in Plachimada in Kerala fought with it over contamination of ground water by factory effluents.
