The Great Nicobar Betrayal (2024) curated by environmentalist and writer Pankaj Sekhsaria is a critical examination of India’s proposed ?72,000 crore mega development project on Great Nicobar Island. The book compiles essays, reports, and perspectives highlighting the ecological and social consequences of the plan, which includes a transshipment port, airport, power plant, and township. Sekhsaria and contributors argue that the project threatens the island’s fragile rainforest ecosystem, rich biodiversity, and the survival of indigenous communities such as the Shompens.
