Kochi: The Kerala government has scrapped the ‘Kerala Tourism Conservation and Preservation of Areas Act 2005’. The act was formulated to regulate unauthorised constructions and to give shape to holistic developmental projects in the tourism sector in the state.
The government has ‘quietly’ scrapped the ‘Act’ designed for the greater good of tourism in Kerala.
The Kerala government has probably decided to scrap the rules that were put in place 17 years ago considering the objections that may rise in the future if the officials continue to follow them strictly.
