Neutrino Observatory in TamilNadu



  • The Tamil Nadu government filed an affidavit in the Supreme Court disallowing the construction of the  Indian Neutrino Observatory in Theni district, at the Bodi West Hills site.

  • TamilNadu has requested the Supreme court that it does not want the INO to be built in ecological zone in the western ghats, at the cost of wildlife and bio diversity.

  • It may create permanent damage to the wildlife and biodiversity.

  • According to our State, the corridor connects the Periyar Tiger Reserve on the Kerala TamilNadu border and the Mathikettan Shola Natioinal Park.
