## ANSWER

MINISTER  OF  STATE  IN  THE  MINISTRY  OF  ENVIRONMENT,  FOREST  AND CLIMATE CHANGE (SHRI ASHWINI KUMAR CHOUBEY)

- (a) & (b) For  restoration and  conservation  of  forests,  the  Government  of  India  is implementing  various  centrally  sponsored  umbrella  schemes  in  States/UTs, including Chhattisgarh. These include National Mission for a Green India (GIM), Nagar  Van  Yojna  (NVY),  Integrated  Development  of  Wildlife  Habitats,  and Forest Fire Prevention and Management (FFPM) scheme. The funds collected under Compensatory Afforestation Fund Management and Planning Authority (CAMPA)  as  compensatory  levies  from  states  are  also  used  for  plantation activities by States/UTs.  The  schemes primarily support ecological restoration through  afforestation  in  and  outside  forest  areas,  forest  landscape  restoration, habitat improvement, soil and water conservation measures and protection etc.

The details of funds provided by the Central Government under NVY and FFPM schemes to various States/UTs during the last three years are given in AnnexureI .

GIM activities were started in the FY 2015-16. So far, a sum of ₹ 755.28 Crores has been released. The State/UT wise details of the funds released under GIM are given at Annexure-II

The details of CAMPA funds utilized by the States/UTs during 2020-21 to 202223 are enclosed at Annexure-III .

As per the India State of Forest Report (ISFR) 2021, the details of States/UTs where  forest  cover  has  increased  as  compared  to  ISFR  (2019)  are  given  at Annexure-IV.

- (c) to (e) The Central Government gets proposals from various States/UTs for conversion of forest villages into revenue villages and voluntary village relocation under the provisions of the Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980 from time to time.

The Government of India vide letter F. No. 8-34/2017-FC dated 20th May 2019 has issued Guidelines for relocate ion of villages in accordance with the directions of  the  Hon'ble  Supreme  Court  in  order  dated  28th  January,  2019,  regarding relocation/rehabilitation of the villages from the core/critical Tiger reserves and critical habitats of the Protected Areas (National Parks and Wildlife Sanctuaries) to the periphery of Reserved Forest/Sanctuaries/National Parks subject to certain conditions.

As per the information available on the PARIVESH portal, the details of such proposals  approved  by  the  Central  Govt.  under  FCA,1980  during  2019-20  to 2022-23 are annexed at Annexure-V.

However, in case any Project Affected Person (PAP) is required to be relocated from the forest area proposed to be diverted under Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980,  the  same  is  done  by  the  State  Government  as  per  the  Rehabilitation  & Resettlement (R&R) plan prepared by the concerned State Government. Further, the  information  regarding  such  displaced  villages  is  not  maintained  at  the Ministry level.
