Does anyone really know about everything that's going on in Lakshadweep now? The little island off the coast is one of the most beautiful place , but administrative injustices have served the citizens a taste of bad fortune. A thread. #SaveLakshadweep
Ever since the sudden death of Dineshwar Sharma, the former Administrator of Lakshadweep, and the Modi Government's appointment of Praful Khoda Patel as his successor, it has been one problem after another for the people of Lakshadweep.

#SaveLakshadweep
First, the Administrator arrived there with little care for COVID guidelines. He scrapped many of the rules they had in place to avoid the virus, and now they have to deal with the pandemic just like any other state.

One of his first moves was to stop schools from serving non vegetarian food in their canteens, and in a predominantly Muslim community, this was extremely unfair. Why change what isn't broken?

His administration then went and destroyed many sheds and local institutions that were set up to help the fishing community of Lakshadweep. Then, for a city that has a very little number of vehicles, he wants to widen the roads and bring down several houses that are in the way.
Praful K Patel even went on to enforce the Gunda Act on an island. The police stations of Lakshadweep have very little crime to deal with and the jails are empty, then why do we need the Gunda Act? The Gunda Act is their answer to put those who oppose their decisions behind bars
As if this wasn't enough, the administration then went on to dismiss several employees at various Government institutions, including healthcare, agriculture and education, even removing those who cook food and teach sports at their schools, without proper cause or reason.
These are only few of the things that have gone wrong in Lakshadweep. What are we going to do about this? Do we turn a blind eye? Or do we step back and take notice. Of all the places I've traveled to, Lakshadweep has some of the nicest people I've met. They do not deserve this.
And much must be said about the Government in power. What goes on behind the minds of people who are taking a moment such as this, when the whole world is already suffering, and make people suffer even more. Enough is enough! #SaveLakshadweep
