Question

Which one of the following conservation categories do not directly involve community participation?

• A. Joint Forest management
• B. Chipko Movement
• C. Beej Bachao Andolan
• D. Demarcation of wildlife sanctuaries

Answer 1

The correct option is D Demarcation of wildlife sanctuaries

• Joint forest management is a policy of forest conservation in which the government and local communities strive for the conservation of forests.
  
• Chipko movement: Chipko movement was a forest conservation movement in India. It began in 1973. Alaknanda floods alarmed people of how deforestation has resulted in the disturbance.
  
• Beej Bachao Andolan is a forest conservatory movement which not only aimed at protecting traditional seeds but also to promote the local tradition of the communities living there.
  
• All the above movements involved communities. But wild life sanctuaries are demarcated to limit the entry of local communities into forest areas.
