Panneerselvam said considering that projects are for people and not people for projects.
He asked Stalin to stop GAIL from laying its gas pipelines in farm lands and lay the same along the highway.
GAIL is laying a pipeline to carry gas from Kochi in Kerala to Bengaluru via several western districts in Tamil Nadu (Coimbatore, Tirupur, Erode, Namakkal, Salem, Dharmapuri and Krishnagiri).
While the pipelines are laid along the highways in Kerala, the company wants to lay the pipes through the farm lands in Tamil Nadu.
The company has refused to lay the pipes along the highways.
