Kerala’s coastal areas are known for their natural beauty and rich biodiversity, but they have been increasingly threatened by illegal activities, including poaching, illegal fishing, and land reclamation. The Kerala Police have been actively involved in protecting these coastal areas by conducting regular patrols and surveillance operations to prevent such illegal activities. They work in coordination with the Coast Guard, Forest Department, and local authorities to ensure that Kerala’s coastal ecosystems remain intact.
The police also respond to cases of environmental damage caused by unauthorized industrial activities and construction along the coastline. Legal actions have been taken against those responsible for polluting coastal waters or engaging in environmentally harmful practices. Through these efforts, the Kerala Police aim to preserve the state’s coastal areas for future generations and maintain their ecological balance.
