Why are the Arabari forests of Bengal known to be a good example of conserved forest?
उत्तर
In 1972, the West Bengal Forest Department could not revive the degraded Arabari forests of Bengal known for Sal trees' cultivation. So, they decided to involve villagers in the process. As a result of their active and willing participation, the Arabari forests underwent a wonderful recovery. The villagers were rewarded for their help with employment in both harvesting and silviculture operations, 25 per cent of the final harvest, and they were allowed to collect fuelwood and fodder on payment of a nominal fee. Hence, Arabari forests of Bengal known to be a good example of conserved forest.
