Business leader Mohamed Jadwet urges policymakers to prioritize water, power, and permit systems before luxury projects in the Andaman & Nicobar Islands, calling current plans premature without basic infrastructure.

This disparity has become a growing point of resentment across the islands. Locals say that government inaction on the issue reflects a larger disconnect between decision-makers and the people.
