EVEN as there is growing opposition towards the Kerala Forest Amendment Bill, the state government has not received even a single complaint or amendment to the draft legislation. The government is open to looking into any complaint or discussion with any organisation regarding the legislation, said Forest Minister A K Saseendran.

"The government decided to bring in amendments, as there were lapses in the legislation. Only the draft has been published. It will become legislation, only after a lot of process. The draft has been published so that the public can come up with suggestions, opinions and complaints. Till date, no one has come forward to use the opportunity," said Saseendran, adding that the department has enemies all around.
