​

Answer 1

Answer:

THE IMPACT OF COLONIAL FORESTRY

Colonial forestry has had wide ranging consequences. Apart from enriching the British and their collaborators, the impact was overwhelmingly negative. It caused irreparable environmental damage, jeopardized the livelihood of communities who subsisted on forests, and became the role model of India’s post independence forest management, thus ensuring its insidious continuity.

The Forest Department’s revenues rose from Rs.5.6 million in the five years between 1869-1874 (or Rs.1.12 million per annum approximately) to Rs.56.7 million in the two years between 1924-25 (Rs.28.35 million per annum approximately). The surplus or profit rose from Rs.1.7 million in the five years between 1869-1874 (or Rs.0.34 million per annum approximately) to Rs.21.3 million in the two years between 1924-25 (Rs.10.65 million per annum approximately). Between 1869 to 1925, annual revenues grew twenty five times, and profit grew thirty one times
