Mujpathri Gram Sabha Declares 1000 Sq Km Forest Land As Community Forest, Including

[ad_1]
SRINAGAR: On April 28th, Panchayat Halqa Mujpathri-Khansaheb made history by organizing the first Gram Sabha on Community Forest Rights under the Forest Rights Act 2006. This event was a significant step towards community-led conservation and sustainable tourism in Jammu and Kashmir.
The event was facilitated by J&K Forest Rights Coalition (FRC), and a large turnout of residents participated in the historical gathering. During the Gram Sabha, a detailed resolution was read and passed by the Forest Rights Committee, Panchayat, and Gram Sabha members with unanimous approval. The resolution declared 1000 square kilometers of forest land as Community Forest, stretching from Sochal-pathri to Nurpurgali, Khaal-Katt to Burgah, Zeskhal to Eid (lidermatt).
The resolution also mandated the panchayat to ensure conservation of forests and mountains, as well as the sustainable use of minor forest produce and forest foods. This move by Mujh Pathri to declare such a large area as a community forest is commendable, and it is hoped that this will serve as an inspiration for other communities and governments to follow suit in promoting community-led forest management and conservation.
Notably, Mujh Pathri panchayat is the first panchayat to lead community conservation, community-based tourism, and afforestation under the leadership of J&K-FRC and its activists. The Gram Sabha also resolved that the first beneficiaries of Doodhpathri tourism would be residents of Rayiar, Mujh Pathri, Gurweit, and BassantWoeder.
The resolution stressed the importance of maintaining the carrying capacity of Doodhpathri during tourism and opposed mass and irresponsible tourism. It also prohibited the use of packed food, polythene, liquor, and narcotic drugs. Furthermore, the Panchayat pledged to monitor anti-environmental development in eco-sensitive areas. The resolution was supported by the Panchayats of Gurwaith, Rayiar, Beeru, RayiarKeich, Check Shaira, and Drager, respectively.
The founder of the J&K Forest Rights Coalition, Dr. Shaikh Ghulam Rasool, Secretary Peer Ghulam Mohiuddin, and Convener Zahid Parwaz Choudhary coordinated the Gram Sabha procedures under the Forest Rights Act 2006. This historical event marks a significant step towards community-led conservation and sustainable tourism in Jammu and Kashmir.
Community forests are forest lands managed and governed by the local communities who use them for their livelihoods, traditional practices, and cultural activities. This approach not only empowers the communities but also helps in conserving the forest ecosystem, reducing deforestation, and promoting biodiversity. The recognition of community forests as a legitimate land-use category is an important development in the realm of forest governance and management.
The declaration of 1000 sq. km of forest land as a community forest during the First Historical Gram Sabha at Mujh Pathri marks a significant step towards sustainable and community-led forest management. It is hoped that this will serve as a model for other regions and communities in promoting community-led forest management and conservation.

Protest if works undertaken in forest areas without nod of gram sabha: Soren to people

[ad_1]
Dumka: Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren on Friday asked the people to protest if any activity was undertaken in forest areas without the permission of gram sabhas, alleging that Centre was trying to exploit the state’s natural resources.
Addressing a rally at midnight in Dumka to mark the 44th foundation day of his party JMM, Soren said the Centre brought changes in the Forest (Conservation) Act so that no prior approval is required from gram sabhas for any work whether it was cutting trees or digging in scheduled areas.
“It was aimed to suppress the voices of Adivasis-Moolvasis,” he alleged.
Soren said he has already written to the Centre, informing it that the changes in the law cannot be implemented in the state.
He said the BJP developed states such as Gujarat and Maharashtra but did nothing for the development of Jharkhand when it was in power.
Alleging that the BJP was hatching a conspiracy to bring down the “Adivasi-Moolvasi government”, Soren said, “They have taken a pledge to send me to jail. However, the truth can be harassed but can not be defeated.”
“We have framed a law based on 1932 khatian to provide employment to local youths, but the governor returned it terming it flawed. A similar law was enacted by the Karnataka government and the Centre had approved it,” he added.
Soren said he will continue to fight for the policy that proposes to use the 1932 land records to determine the domicile status of people.
