India shows a marginal increase in forest cover

  • When I think of forest land in India, I have a perception as if more than 50% of land is covered with forest and india might be the one with lots of forest land inspite of dense population.
  • This really shocked me when I read that India has only 21.53% of geographic area covered with forest.
    While it's a relaxing fact even after exploding population of India the it is increasing with a very slow rate as the growth in forest land recorded last year was only 0.21%.
  • However it's also a sad fact that a target to reach 33% forest area was set in 1998 which is yet to be accompnished.
  • I believe that the "nadi abhiyaan" by sadguru will help increasing this percentage even more.
