💨 Abstract

In Udhagamandalam (Tamil Nadu), commercial establishments and transport services protested against an e-pass system implemented to regulate vehicle movement. The protest, which affected tourists' access to hotels and food, was due to the system impacting their livelihoods. The system, which limits the number of vehicles entering the district, was mandated by the Madras High Court to manage the influx of vehicles to hill tourist attractions during summer.
