Is there hope for the Great Nicobar, its wildlife and indigenous people? | Book Shook

‘Island On Edge: The Great Nicobar Crisis’ edited by scientist Pankaj Sekhsaria is a compilation of journalistic writing on the proposed projects on the Great Nicobar Island, including a piece that was first published in The Wire. The stories focus on the illegalities and violations in the projects, the economics of the port and its competition with Singapore and Colombo, the details of how dissent expressed by indigenous peoples have been ignored, and more. Sekhsaria talks to The Wire’s Aathira Perinchery about the issues, and the latest nail in the coffin — the National Green Tribunal’s refusal to interfere in the environmental clearance given to the projects.
