The Forest Rights Act is once again in the spotlight after the Calcutta High Court agreed to hear a PIL challenging the tribal consent process for the massive Great Nicobar Island mega infrastructure project.

The controversy revolves around whether the rights of indigenous tribes like the Shompen and Nicobarese were bypassed before granting forest clearance for the ₹81,000 crore development project. The case raises critical questions about tribal rights, environmental governance, Gram Sabha consent, biodiversity conservation, and sustainable development in India.
