Residents of Pavoor-Uliya Island, supported by the Catholic Sabha, conducted a protest in the Nethravati River against illegal sand extraction, which threatens their livelihoods and causes erosion on the island. Demonstrators expressed frustration over the lack of action from the district administration and the Mines and Geology department, despite previous complaints and petitions. Alwyn D'Souza, president of Catholic Sabha, emphasized the ongoing illegal activities have been occurring for over two months, impacting the island's size and safety. The protesters demanded immediate intervention from the state government, highlighting their reliance on temporary structures for access to the mainland. Despite a previous inspection by the mining department finding no illegal activity, the residents remain resolute in their fight to protect their home, threatening further protests if their concerns are not addressed. The situation has garnered significant community support, with slogans like 'Protect the Island, Save Life' resonating among the participants.
