National Committee on Forest Rights Act

National Committee on Forest Rights Act

The Ministry of Environment and Forests and the Ministry of Tribal Affairs constituted a Joint Committee in April 2010 to review the implementation of the Scheduled Tribes and Other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights) Act, 2006 popularly known as Forests Rights Act (FRA) in the country with a specific TOR outlined for the purpose. The Committee members were selected from  wide spectrum of background and expertise consisting of retired civil servants, forest officers, tribal department officers and representatives of Civil Society Organizations and NGOs.

The analysis and recommendations made in this report are fundamentally intended to improve the implementation of the FRA for the benefit of the forest dwelling STs and OTFDs and also for the sustenance of the resource base on which they depend for their life and livelihood and in noway should be seen or interpreted as intended to demean any particular agency or department.
