Addressing the gathering of about 2000 people, peasant leader Akhil Gogoi said that the Tiger Project scheme must be denotified in the larger interest of the people of Kaziranga who are mostly dependent on tourism for their basic livelihood. He further said that common people must be made aware of the day-to-day happenings in Kaziranga adding that some of the government officials are misusing funds with the help of some particular NGOs in the name of conservation.

It was also decided that existing Eco development committees must be dissolved as suggested by one D Saha from Katha/ Aaranyak and next move of selection in the eco development committee must be made through public hearing.
