General200513 sections

This law aims to protect and manage tourist spots in Kerala by designating specific areas as Special Tourism Zones. It establishes a committee to create development plans and guidelines, ensuring that construction and other activities follow these rules. The goal is to prevent unauthorized building and encroachments, promoting sustainable and integrated development to preserve the state's tourism appeal. By regulating how these zones are developed, the Act ensures that tourism growth does not harm the environment or cultural heritage, maintaining Kerala's status as a premier travel destination for visitors.
