The Andaman and Nicobar Islands are home to some of the most isolated and vulnerable tribes in the world.
The Shompen - some 400 people - of the Great Nicobar Island are also at risk of losing their way of life due to external pressures.
The project includes a transshipment harbour, a power plant, an airport and a new township.
Ecologists warn of the effect on the Galathea Bay on the south-eastern side of the island, which has been the nesting place for giant leatherback sea turtles for centuries .
The project will also affect saltwater crocodiles and the island’s water monitors, fish and avifauna.
