FRA 2006 needs urgent reforms to bridge the gap between promise and delivery

The Forest Rights Act (FRA) of 2006 is in urgent need of reforms to effectively bridge the gap between its promises and actual delivery, especially for forest-dependent communities in India. This reform is crucial as it aims to empower these communities, ensuring their active participation in conservation efforts and sustainable development. Strengthening the FRA can lead to improved socio-economic conditions for marginalized populations while promoting environmental sustainability.
