At Andaman authorities do not allow tourist to shells from beaches why must be so ?
Answers
Explanation:
I visited Andaman's when I was 11 back in 2001 . I love corals and shells. I had collected many from ross island , Chidiya Tapu and I had carried it with me . I did not have any problem while returning.
Honestly I wasn't even aware of the fact that I was doing something wrong in carrying it back to the mainland. But yes I didn't face any issues while my bag was screened .I still have them till date.
Having said the above please refrain from doing so .

Point 4 in the aforementioned link is not to collect corals unless you have grants from the fisheries dept.
5 and 6 also talk on the same line's .
As an adult I feel terrible that I have unknowingly breached the law and brought them home.
Now I realise why ma and pa were displeased when they saw me arrange the corals in the mantle once we got back :(.
