Idukki District Collector orders closure of High Range Zipline

The Idukki District Collector has ordered the immediate closure of the High Range Zipline, a facility controlled by M.M. Lambodaran, the brother of CPM leader and former minister M.M. Mani. The action was taken after the facility continued to operate and accommodate tourists despite a government-imposed ban due to severe weather warnings and an orange alert in the district.

What Happened

The Idukki District Collector issued an order to stop the operations of the High Range Zipline until further notice. The facility, which is officially owned by Sarojini, the wife of M.M. Lambodaran, was found to be operating in violation of restrictions placed on tourism activities during the current period of heavy rainfall and orange alert warnings in the district. Following the incident, the Adimaly police registered a case against the owner.

This closure follows reports that the establishment had previously violated operational regulations. The district administration took the decision to shut down the venture indefinitely due to the repeated nature of these legal violations and the potential risks posed to tourists during adverse weather conditions.
