Coimbatore: In response to potential threats along the Tamil Nadu-Kerala border, forest officials have ramped up surveillance to monitor Maoist activities and illicit liquor brewing. The team, led by the Periyanayakanpalayam Forest Range Officer, is carrying out inspections and investigations among the local communities in Anaikatti, Gopanari, Koodappatti, and Ezhuthukalputhur.
