Protected areas in biodiversity conservation of India: An overview

Abstract

Habitat loss due to human activities and weather extrade is synergistically posing critical threats to the worldwide biodiversity main to irreversible extinction of diverse species. In wake of recent extinction, numerous forests are declared as protected areas wherein no greater human activities are allowed. However, the scope of these protected regions got broadened from mere conservation to poverty comfort and sustainable improvement within the course of the beyond decades. Though those protected regions appear to be supportive of the biodiversity conservation, numerous disputes and gaps have emerged that want to be addressed for powerful conservation and sustainable control in those protected areas. Although governmental regulations have addressed variety of these contests, handiest constrained achievement has been finished up to now. Therefore, similarly research wants to judge the performance of protected areas for biodiversity conservation and devise the mechanisms for powerful sustainable control of these protected areas.
