Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

The British took control of the forests and people were forced to depend on much smaller areas

After, the exit of the British, The Forest Department took over ignoring local needs and local management practises

Local people could no longer collect-leaves for fodder, herbs for medicines, fruits and nuts for food from their forests because it was reserved for industries.

Nomadic shepherds were driven out, Land conflicts led to movements by Naxalites

Turning a blind eye to needs of the locals alienated them leading to clashes between forest officials and villagers.
