Answer:
Well, It wasn't bcose
Explanation:
The National Forest Policy of 1952 was insufficient to reduce forest depletion. Forests being a state subject, there was no serious effort made for the preservation and conservation of the forests. Commercial outlook always dominates and the industrial demands were met without ensuring natural regeneration or compensator reforestation.
The political environs indiscriminately used the forests land for furthering their political interests. Maximization of the short- term benefits of economic development was the priority and the concepts of sustainability, protection and conservation of the forests was almost forgotten.
It was, therefore, imperative to review and revise the National Forest Policy of 1952, with a view to evolve a new strategy for forest protection in the future. Hence, the government came up with the 1988 National Forest Policy.
