Jose said the CM assured him that the government will not take any measures detrimental to farmers and inhabitants of high-range areas. The KC(M) says around 1.3 crore residents of 430 panchayats that share their borders with forests will be affected by the bill. The contention raised by the party includes the amendment of Section 63 of the Act that allows forest officials to keep arrested persons in their custody for a longer period than earlier, before they are produced at police stations.
