Coimbatore : As many as 20 activists of Makkal Adhikaram, a fringe outfit, were arrested here on Monday, when they attempted to stage a demonstration condemning the NGT order allowing to open Sterlite in Tuticorin.
The agitators wanted the Tamil Nadu government to enact a law for the permanent closure of the plant, police said.
They also alleged that the Government failed to take proper legal measures to see the closure of the plant.
