Tourism development in Alleppey (Kerala) began to gear up in the early 1990s leading to a major resource allocation crisis.Tourists consumed a disproportionately large chunk of the consumptive resources depriving the local population of the traditional control over the same. Sex-tourism though houseboats, especially involving women and minors, is a major disruptive development worth mentioning. Houseboat tourism generates other human rights violations as well: the sewages pumped out of these to the backwaters make it extremely unhealthy for human consumption. The government did not do anything to control the water pollution or bring in alternative sources of potable water.
