The ₹72,000-crore infrastructure project on Great Nicobar includes an international cruise terminal and shipbreaking yard.
The project has raised concerns about its impact on indigenous tribes of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, specifically the Shompens and the Nicobarese.
Shompens are an indigenous, semi-nomadic tribe residing in the interior forests of Great Nicobar Island.
They are one of the most isolated tribes in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands and are protected under the provisions of the Indian Constitution.
