Meppadi: The Grama Panchayat Administrative Committee has decided to temporarily close all the resorts within the limits of Meppadi Grama Panchayat in the wake of the brutal trampling of Shahana, a college teacher from Kannur, who had come to stay in a tent at the resort in Elampileri.
It was also decided to check the permit documents of the resorts within 15 days. Authorities say many resorts do not have licenses or other documents. More than 100 resorts have been operating illegally in the panchayat alone for years.
