THE Madras High Court has ordered advocate commissioner to visit the resettlement slum colonies for those evicted from the heart of Chennai city and file a fresh report on the basic amenities provided to them.

The first bench of Chief Justice SV Gangapurwala and Justice J Sathya Narayana Prasad recently passed the orders on a 2017 petition filed by Pennurimai Iyakkam seeking in situ habitation for the relocated slum dwellers in order to ensure their livelihood does not get affected.

The advocate commissioner, K Elango, after being appointed in 2018, inspected the colonies located at Perumbakkam, Navallur, Kudapakkam and AIR Nagar where the slum dwellers have been resettled.

When the case came up for hearing recently, the counsel for the Tamil Nadu Slum Clearance Board (currently TN Urban Habitat Development Board) submitted the relocated families have been provided with all the necessary basic amenities and facilities.
