They displayed banners and placards opposing the draft EIA, 2020 in an attempt to create awareness among people. In the banner it was stated, "Ellora Vigyan Mancha, Doomdooma Branch opposes the EIA-2020 anti-people ordinance of the Central Government whereby the forest, environment, nature and biodiversity of Assam and the Northeast are sought to be destroyed by giving unhindered opportunity to the big business houses and the capitalists to plunder these natural assets."
