Residents oppose new location of Tasmac outlet in Tiruvannamalai
Revenue officials and the police reached the spot and pacified the agitated residents, who dispersed after assurance from officials that relocation will not be carried out on the proposed land
Residents in Arattavadi village opposed the proposed relocation of a Tasmac outlet from neighboring Thanda village. They argued that the area already hosts a Tasmac outlet and preventing the move would alleviate potential traffic congestion and accidents. The residents blocked officials, including the Tahsildar, from inspecting the chosen site.
Upon learning of the situation, revenue officials and police arrived to calm the protesters, who eventually left after assurances that the outlet would not be relocated to the proposed land. A resident, N. Sarala, claimed that the new location would disrupt traffic, leading to potential accidents and inconvenience for commuters who use the Ariyakunjur main road to reach nearby towns.
Tasmac officials revealed that the outlet in Thanda village was shut down recently due to resident complaints.
