المفاهيم الأساسية

Flora and fauna in daily life

India is described as one of the world's richest countries in its vast array of biological diversity.

Visual evidence of human–forest connections

The activities are different: nursery work, selling forest produce and collecting leaf litter.

Project Tiger and named reserves

Manas Tiger Reserve is in Assam, and Periyar Tiger Reserve is in Kerala.

Permanent forest estates

Reserved and protected forests are also called permanent forest estates.

Community action and livelihoods

Conservation is not presented only as something governments do; people living near or within these habitats also take action.

Chipko's conservation contribution

The famous Chipko movement in the Himalayas is presented through two achievements. It successfully resisted deforestation in several areas.

Community traditions and sacred trees

The larger point is that cultural traditions can contribute to preserving particular trees.

Traditional animal protection

Indian society includes several cultures, each with traditional methods of conserving nature.

   A development committee argues that conservation should be left entirely to government agencies because community action cannot protect habitats or support livelihoods. Assess this view using five relevant examples.

   نقاط التصحيح

   • Any one of five distinct, correctly explained textbook-supported community examples (1 mark each). Typical: Sariska: villagers defended habitats by opposing mining through the Wildlife Protection Act. Also accept any alternative listed under the fifth point.1
   • Any one of five distinct, correctly explained textbook-supported community examples (1 mark each). Typical: Alwar: community-led protection in Bhairodev Dakav 'Sonchuri' through prohibition of hunting and protection against outside encroachments. Also accept any alternative listed under the fifth point.1
   • Any one of five distinct, correctly explained textbook-supported community examples (1 mark each). Typical: Chipko: resistance to deforestation and/or successful community afforestation with indigenous species. Also accept any alternative listed under the fifth point.1
   • Any one of five distinct, correctly explained textbook-supported community examples (1 mark each). Typical: Beej Bachao Andolan and Navdanya: adequate diversified production without synthetic chemicals was economically viable. Also accept any alternative listed under the fifth point.1
   • Any one of five distinct, correctly explained textbook-supported community examples (1 mark each). Typical: JFM: village institutions protect degraded forests and participating members receive forest-produce benefits. Acceptable alternatives in place of any typical example: sacred groves, forest patches left untouched by local people with any interference banned; Bishnoi villages in Rajasthan, where blackbuck (chinkara), nilgai and peacocks are part of the community and nobody harms them; villagers in many areas protecting habitats themselves and explicitly rejecting government involvement (not credited separately from the Alwar example).1
