Fishermen oppose move to relocate slum tenements
In a meeting held on Tuesday, fishermen and environmentalists strongly opposed the government proposal to relocate 1,356 slum tenements and evict more than 3,000 hutments in Srinivasapuram to create a 15-acre park near Adyar Creek.
They also objected to the development of a 45-lakh square-feet commercial hub which includes theatres and hotels at Foreshore Estate.
