Answer:
There
have been a number of changes in forest areas in India since independence and
some which have occurred in my district are as follows
(i) Entry to forest area is
restricted and the Forest Department has posted guards to check any illegal entry.
(ii) Although, the number of trees in the forest has increased, reduction
of rainfall in recent years has stunted the growth of trees.
(iii) The Adivasi villagers living inside the forest areas
are gradually leaving their traditional occupations and migrating to the towns
for education and jobs.
(iv) A number of wild animals like tigers and elephants are
sometimes seen on the edges of the forest, but they do not venture out for fear
of being killed by human beings. Earlier the tigers used to come into the nearby
villages and take away animals and small children at night.
(v) The smugling of ivory and skin of tiger has been almost
controlled.
