The correct answer is OPTION D: Karnataka.

• In the Uttara Kannada district, forests covered approximately 81 per cent of the entire area.
• After deciding that this forest district was "behind," the government started the "development" process.
• To harness the rivers, a pulp and paper factory, a plywood plant, and a series of hydroelectric dams were constructed.
• Dams have inundated vast swaths of forest and farmland, reducing the forest resource.
• The famous Chipko Andolan in the Himalayas inspired people in Karnataka's Uttara Kannada area to initiate a similar movement to safeguard their forests.
• In the Kalase jungle, Salkani men, women, and children gripped the trees. The Appiko Andolan raised awareness in southern India.
