  • Bhadra Voluntary Relocation India
    BHADRA VOLUNTARY RELOCATION INDIA INDIA FOREWORD During my tenure as Director Project Tiger in the Ministry of Environment and Forests, Govt. of India, I had the privilege of participating in voluntary relocation of villages from Bhadra Tiger Reserve. As nearly two decades have passed, whatever is written below is from my memory only. Mr Yatish Kumar was the Field Director of Bhadra Tiger Reserve and Mr Gopalakrishne Gowda was the Collector of Chikmagalur District of Karnataka during voluntary relocation in Bhadra Tiger Reserve. This Sanctuary was notified as a Tiger Reserve in the year 1998. After the notification as tiger reserve, it was necessary to relocate the existing villages as the entire population with their cattle were dependent on the Tiger Reserve. The area which I saw in the year 1998 was very rich in flora and fauna. Excellent bamboo forests were available but it had fire hazard too because of the presence of villagers and their cattle. Tiger population was estimated by Dr. Ullas Karanth and his love for this area was due to highly rich biodiversity. Ultimately, resulted in relocation of all the villages from within the reserve. Dr Karanth, a devoted biologist was a close friend of mine and during his visit to Delhi he proposed relocation of villages. As the Director of Project Tiger, I was looking at voluntary relocation of villages for tribals only from inside Tiger Reserve by de-notifying suitable areas of forests for relocation, but in this case the villagers were to be relocated by purchasing a revenue land which was very expensive.

Research Article PTERIDOPHYTE DIVERSITY IN WET EVERGREEN FORESTS OF SAKLESHPUR IN CENTRAL WESTERN GHATS Sumesh N. Dudani1, 2, M. K. Mahesh2, M. D. Subash Chandran1 and *T. V. Ramachandra1 1Energy and Wetlands Research Group, Centre for Ecological Sciences, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore – 560 012 2Department of Botany, Yuvaraja’s College (Autonomous), University of Mysore, Mysore - 57005 ABSTRACT The present study deals with the diversity of pteridophytes in the wet evergreen forests of Sakleshpurtaluk of Hassan district in central Western Ghats. A significant portion of the study area comprises of the Gundia river catchment region which is considered to be the ‘hottest hotspot of biodiversity’ as it shelters numerous endemic and threatened species of flora and fauna. Survey of various macro and micro habitats was carried out in this region, also a haven for pteridophytes. A total of 45 species of pteridophytes from 19 families were recorded in the study. The presence of South Indian endemics like Cyathea nilgirensis, Bolbitissub crenatoides, B. semicordata and Osmunda huegeliana signifies the importance of this region as a crucial centre of pteridophytes. Similar regions in the Western Ghats, rich in network of perennial streams have been targeted widely for irrigation and power projects. With regard to an impending danger in the form a proposed hydro-electric project in the Gundia River, threatening the rich biodiversity, an overall ecological evaluation was carried out in the entire river basin.

Abstract: Kemmangundi forest is located in Bhadra wildlife sanctuary of central Western Ghats. Studies were conducted to determine the pteridophytic composition in Kemmangundi forest during 2009 to 2012. Present study indicated that the checklist consists of 38 taxa, of which 29 species of terrestrial, five epiphytic, one climber and six lithophytes belonging to eighteen families were documented with their diversity index. Pteridaceae stands the dominant family of the study area with eight species followed by Polypodiaceae (5), Adiantaceae and Aspleniaceae each with three species. Pteris is reported as a largest genus including eight species in study area. Arachniodes sledgei Fraser-Jenk. is followed by Pteris biaurita L., Tectaria coudunata (Wall. ex Hook. & ex Grev.) C.Chr. , Odontosoria tenuifolia (Lam.) J.Sm.and Thelypteris caudipinna Ching the most densely populated with highest Importance value index in the study area. The Shannon’s diversity index value (H 1) 2.97 and Simpson’s diversity (D) =0.269 values for pteridophytic species in Kemmangundi forest evidencing the pteridophytes richness of the area. This is a comprehensive report of the pteridophytic diversity and distribution of Kemmangundi forest with special emphasis on composition, which will help various researchers as the sound basis for further works and conservation efforts.

  • Bhadra Management Plan
    1 PREFACE The last Management Plan, for the Protected Area, expired in March 2005 and as such, the writing of a new Management Plan was overdue. The present Management Plan is for the period 2005-2015 and has focussed on Wildlife management. A draft preliminary Management Plan was prepared by January 2005. This also involved detail perambulation of the Sanctuary, updating the field realities and supplementing the details on the map prepared by Survey of India (1971). A summary of the draft preliminary Management Plan in English was prepared, and circulated among the officers. Discussions were held with them, and their suggestions taken into consideration while preparing the draft Management Plan. Majority of the management prescriptions, have evolved through this process. The management efforts so far in this reserve have been on the protection and development of habitat for biodiversity conservation without looking into the problems of surroundings villages. The reserve cannot survive with more than one lakh biomass dependent people and an equal number of cattle head exerting tremendour pressure without developing the multiple use surround through eco-development. The plan has rightly proposed for taking up of eco- development works in the surroundings villages. Great effort has been made to identify the problems that are faced now in the reserve. The strategies prescribed to overcome the problems are based on area specific requirement of each of the problem. The Management Plan has followed the “Manual for Planning Wildlife Management in Protected Areas and Managed Forests by V.B. Sawarkar, Wildlife Institute of India, Dehra Dun (1995)”. 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY “Bhadra Wildlife Reserve” was formally declared a Sanctuary in 1974.
