This incident echoes a similar controversy from last season when contestant Varthur Santosh was involved in a tiger claw pendant case, which drew attention from the forest department. Santosh was questioned over the legality of his possession of the tiger claw, as tiger body parts are strictly prohibited under the Wildlife Protection Act, 1972.
If officials from the forest department catch wind of this latest development, they may take immediate action to investigate whether the pendant indeed contains a tiger claw, as wildlife crimes are taken seriously in India. Possession of such an item without proper authorization could lead to legal consequences for Suresh, including fines or imprisonment.
The reappearance of this issue has sparked discussions among viewers about the need for greater awareness regarding wildlife protection. As the season progresses, it remains to be seen whether the show or its participants will face further scrutiny over this sensitive issue, which has raised concerns among wildlife activists and legal authorities alike.
