Question

2. Why did the women take lead in forest saving movement?

​

Answer 1

$\huge\underline\mathfrak{Answer :-}$

They were able to perceive the link between their victimization and the denuding of mountain slopes by commercial interests. Thus, sheer survival made women support the movement. Why men did not see these connections and women did has to do with the way the subsistence economy is organized in this area.
