Government to ease norms on Malampuzha sand [1]

A Satish

PALAKKAD: The government has decided to relax the norms for lifting of Malampuzha sand from its banks. The price is set to come down to Rs 950 a cubic metre if it is for public purpose. The liberalisation of the norms will enable the public to buy the sand directly by paying the price. Currently, the public can lift the sand only if they take it in lots of 10,000 cubic metres.
