The cause of mass resentment are the newly introduced draft laws – the Animal Preservation Regulation, the Prevention of Anti-Social Activities Regulation (popularly known as the Goonda Act) and the Panchayat Regulation. The furore is also targeted at administrator Praful Khoda Patel for initiating these measures and claiming to develop islands on the lines of Maldives under Lakshadweep Development Authority Regulation (LDAR) 2021. Marine biologists and environmentalists have vehemently opposed the new plans and expressed grave concern over their possible impact to the fragile ecology.
