Rajasthan To Introduce Tree Protection Act

The Rajasthan government is preparing to introduce the Tree Protection Act in the upcoming assembly session. This move is expected to provide a legal framework for protecting trees, including the Khejri tree, which holds significant importance in the state. The proposed law is likely to include provisions for permitting the cutting of trees and penalties for unauthorized felling. This initiative is seen as a step towards conservation of the environment and protection of the state's biodiversity.
