MLA Adv. Carlos Alvares Ferreira has expressed significant concerns regarding the environmental impact and management of the Dudhsagar Jeep Safari. The safari, which attracts a large number of tourists to the scenic Dudhsagar Waterfalls, has been criticized for overcrowding and inadequate facilities at the Kulem base, where the tours begin. Ferreira emphasized the need for better regulation and infrastructure improvements to ensure both visitor satisfaction and the preservation of the surrounding ecosystem.

Moreover, he emphasized the importance of involving local communities in tourism management, advocating for strategies that would allow residents to benefit economically while promoting responsible tourism practices. He called for dialogue among stakeholders, including the tourism department and local authorities, to ensure that the interests of the community are prioritized in any future developments related to the Jeep safari.
