LOCAL HAMMERS CHURE CONSERVATION PROGRAM IN NEPAL


The President Chure Conservation Program has come to a standstill for past four months. Despite massive deforestation in Chure forest range, conservation program is of less interest to the locals and as a result, this years’ budget of NRS 6.2 million has been left unspent. Following the arrest of the chairman of the community forest, the locals have refused to support the program, whereas some locals themselves are involved in the smuggling of timber.
