Solution

The correct option is B Forests and also title of lands
Forest Right Act, which was passed in Parliament in December 2006 and which became operational in January 2008, recognises the rights of forest dwellers, including Scheduled Tribes and others, to use, protect and manage forest resources where they live. The law concerns the rights of forest-dwelling communities to land and other resources, denied to them over decades as a result of colonial forest laws in India.
