Over withdrawal of freshwater and unregulated usage of land in this region caused a quick depletion of water table and the water salinity levels sky rocketed. The scope of the project was to address the impact of Limestone & Fresh water extraction in the region. The ecosystem involved is of prime importance because it lies between the Arabian
archaic animal which many believed evolved into contemporary reef-construction that formed for the last 25 million years. Considered the biggest framework on earth, the biological origin and heterogeneous system provides the longest growth within the ecological community. A coral reef resonates thousands of years of historical/scientific data; and provides the greatest order of colonial organisms which is made up of an idiosyncratic biological structure.

Restrictive management practices, exclusionary conservation policy and non – participatory governance of protected area have rigorously affected livelihoods of an indigenous people who are predominately dependent on natural resources (Amin, 2015; West, 2006; Wells 1995).

Each stresses the relations of nature and literature as shifting and moving shapes. Here, the role of an ecocritic is to examine this relationship where human culture is "linked to the physical world and
demand on land and its resources for shelter, food, better living conditions and an improved market economy. Land is the basic source of material wealth and a commodity that is always affected by the forces of demand and supply so it has a crucial importance and requires effective administration and management to support sustainable development [1]. Land administration systems are concerned with social, legal, economic and technical framework within which land managers and administrations
