Earlier order allowed farmers to cut all trees, except sandalwood, on land with title deed The government has issued a new order cancelling its earlier order allowing farmers with title deeds issued under the 1964 Land Assignment Act to cut all trees, except sandalwood, grown by them on their land in Idukki.
