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.
