Documentary abstract — original language

The chapter points out that the JFM programme that was adopted in the hills had scant regard of the traditional institutions of community management of forests. It is also important to note how the JFM programme influences the forest department to be more receptive to the idea of community forestry and the changes that may follow in the policies towards the van panchayats. The chapter also refers to some other recent developments towards decentralization such as the 73rd Constitutional Amendment Act, 1993 that strengthened the third tier of government; the Panchayat (Extension to Scheduled Areas) Act (PESA), 1996 that took the 73rd Constitutional Amendment to Schedule V areas; and the Scheduled Tribes and Other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights Act), 2006 that gave individual property rights to forest dwellers and community rights over forest land and its resources. These three Acts have all provided greater role to the community and the institution of the Gram Panchayat in forest conservation. An analysis of these decentralizing steps and the increasing role of the government by harnessing peoples' skills directly under state authority, as well as the future of the JFM is discussed.
