Chennai, Feb 20 (IANS) Tamil Nadu Chief Minister O. Panneerselvam Friday said the government has filed a special leave petition in the apex court against the order of Madras High Court quashing its two orders for the setting up of anti-land grab police cells and special courts.

"A special leave petition against the high court's order was filed at the Supreme Court on Tuesday," Panneerselvam told the state assembly.

He said that as per the high court order, the anti-land grab police cells cannot function as a separate unit.

He said the high court order also does not signify that land worth Rs.2,354 crore, restored to the original owners, would now be reverted to the land grabbers.
