Kerala Minister resigns over land grab allegations

Kerala Transport Minister Thomas Chandy resigned on Wednesday over land grab allegations. This comes after Alappuzha District Collector filed a report in August stating that Chandy illegally acquired land and violated conservation regulations for building a luxury resort and its parking lot. Reportedly, Chandy was alleged to have got a road constructed through government-owned land and leveled water bodies to facilitate easier access to his Lake Palace Resort located near the Punnamada Lake in Kerala.
