1)  British government took control over forests by forest laws and as a result, people who depended on forest products lost their livelihood

2)  Many communities left their traditional occupations and started trading in forest products. This happened in India and almost all parts of the world. In India, the trade in forest products was not new as from the medieval period, adivasi communities were trading elephants and other goods like hides, horns, silk cocoons, ivory, bamboo, spices, fibres, grasses, gums and resins through nomadic communities like Banjaras

3)  The British government gave many large European trading firms the sole right to trade in the forest products of particular areas. As a result, grazing and hunting by local people were restricted.
