Factory on 196 acres of Bharathiar University land: Why is there opposition to the DMK government order?

The government has transferred 196 acres of land previously under the control of Bharathiar University in Coimbatore for industrial use. Social activists argue that this move will adversely affect the university's academic activities and poses a significant environmental risk as the area is located near an elephant corridor. With the previously proposed 'Tech City' project in the same area having been abandoned due to public protest, this current government order has sparked a major controversy.
