Abstract

The article discusses the alleged controversy in establishing Neutrinos Observatory near Theni, Tamil Nadu, India. The Madras high court has stalled its construction because cosmic ray neutrons emission will effect local biosphere, ground water causing pollution and affect human health according to activists. The project is planned underground to avoid radiation due to cosmic rays but activists Sundarrajan and Vijay Asokan from Tamil Nadu are opposing it on environmental aspects.
