Thrissur: Agriculture Minister K.P. Mohanan said here on Tuesday that the State would intensify raid against endosulfan.

The Minister was speaking to media on the sidelines of the State convention of the Socialist Janata (Democratic) here on Tuesday. The State government would file an affidavit in the Supreme Court on endosulfan issue in a plea demanding the formation of a tribunal, Mr. Mohanan said.
