Coimbatore: The Coimbatore District Administration has recently announced that applications for extracting silt from 84 water bodies in the district can be submitted online. This initiative aims to facilitate the process for potters and farmers who require the silt for their professional activities.

According to the announcement, potters engaged in pottery-making and farmers for agricultural land improvement can collect clay and silt deposited in these water bodies free of cost. The district administration has published this information in the District Gazette, making it official.

The administration has further clarified that those involved in pottery and agricultural activities can apply online to collect the required clay and silt for free. This move is expected to streamline the process and make it more accessible to the intended beneficiaries.
