 discuss impact of forest act on tribal people????????/

Dear Student,

The impact of forest laws on the tribal people was as follows:

  • It stopped shifting cultivation, hunting and collection of forest produce, the people of Bastar were very worried.
  • Some villages were allowed to stay on in the reserved forests on the condition that they worked free for the forest department in cutting and transporting trees, and protecting the forest from fires. 
  • People of other villages were displaced without any notice or compensation. 
  • For long, villagers suffered from increased land rents and frequent demands for free labour and goods by colonial officials. 
  • Thenthey were hit by terrible famines, in 1899-1900 and again in 1907-1908.
