What the paper says

In India, the Coastal Aquaculture Authority, established at the behest of the Supreme Court to protect the coastal environment from an unregulated shrimp industry, has evolved into a bureaucratic apparatus that promotes business interests. The recent reform of this agency underscores the conflicting dialogue between the Government and the judiciary on environmental issues, highlighting the complexities of a law-making process that prioritises economic growth over ecological concerns.
