Question

We saw in this chapter that there are four main stakeholders when it comes to forests and wildlife.
Which among these should have the authority to decide the management of forest produce? Why do you
think so ?​

Answer 1

Out of the four given stakeholders, the people who live in and around the forests should have the authority to decide the management of forest produce. This is because these people have been living and maintaining forests since a long time.

The forest department of the government should have the authority to decide the management of forest produces. This is because the forest department is the caretaker of the forest land and is responsible for any damage to the forest.
