The Udupi district administration has taken stern action against several illegal homestays and resorts in the region. In a recent raid, a total of 130 illegal accommodations were shut down for violating sewage treatment norms.
The crackdown was a result of a prolonged campaign by the district administration to ensure compliance with environmental regulations. The authorities had been warning the owners of these establishments to rectify the situation, but many failed to do so.
The shutdown of these illegal accommodations is expected to have a significant impact on the local environment, as it will prevent further pollution of the region's water bodies. The district administration has announced plans to take further action against those who continue to flout environmental regulations.
