Answer:
Dietrich Brandis, a German expert, was appointed as the first inspector general of forests in India by the British government to save the forest.
Brandis realised that a proper system have to be introduced to manage the forest and people had to be trained in the science of conservation.
This system would need legal sanction. Rules about the use of forest resources had to be framed.
