Shri BAIJAYANT PANDA Will the Minister of TRIBAL AFFAIRS be pleased to state:- (a) whether the Government proposes to extend the applicability of the Scheduled Tribes and other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights) Act, 2006 to fisherman of Bhitarkanika wildlife sanctuary for fishing inside the sanctuary; (b) if so, the details thereof; and (c) the steps taken by the Government in this regard? ANSWER MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF TRIBAL AFFAIRS (SMT. RANEE NARAH) (a) to (c): The Scheduled Tribes and other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights) Act, 2006 seeks to recognize and vest the forest rights and occupation in forest land in forest dwelling Scheduled Tribes and other traditional forest dwellers who have been residing in such forests for generations but whose rights could not be recorded. The term “forest land” as defined in Section 2(d) of the Act means land of any description falling within any forest area including the wildlife sanctuaries. The forest rights recognized under the Act include the community rights of uses or entitlements of fish and other products of water bodies. Therefore, if the fishermen of Bhitarkanika wildlife sanctuary are “forest dwelling Scheduled Tribes” and “other traditional forest dwellers” within the meaning of the Act, then they are eligible for recognition of the said community right of uses or entitlements of fish and other products of water bodies. --------------------------- GOVERNMENT OF INDIA MINISTRY OF MINES LOK SABHA UNSTARRED QUESTION NO 5996 ANSWERED ON 03.05.2013 VIOLATION OF FOREST RIGHTS ACT 5996 .

ANSWER MINISTER OF THE STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF MINES (SHRI DINSHA PATEL) (a) & (b) No Madam. However, the Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF) have informed that they have issued guidelines on 3rd August,2009 and 5th February,2013 on submission of documentary evidences in support of settlement of rights in accordance with the provisions of the Scheduled Tribes and other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights) Act, 2006 along with the proposals seeking prior approval of the Central Government under the Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980 for diversion of forest land for non-forest purpose, including for mining projects. 3 | Page (c) The Ministry of Mines conveys its prior approval for grant of mineral concessions subject to statutory approvals including forest clearances under the Forest (Conservation) Act. Only after these approvals are given, mineral concessions are granted by the State Governments. (d) The Government has introduced the Mines and Minerals (Development and Regulation) Bill (MMDR Bill), 2011 in Lok Sabha on 12.12.2011 in which there is a provision for sharing of benefits with the local population which would enable monetary benefit to families affected by mining related activities and creation, management and maintenance of local infrastructure in areas affected by mining related operations. -------------------------- GOVERNMENT OF INDIA MINISTRY OF TRIBAL AFFAIRS LOK SABHA STARRED QUESTION NO 275 ANSWERED ON 15.03.2013 IMPLEMENTATION OF THE FOREST RIGHTS ACT 275 . Shri KHAGEN DAS FEROZE VARUN GANDHI Will the Minister of TRIBAL AFFAIRS be pleased to state:- (a) whether the Government has identified the factors that impede the implementation of the Scheduled Tribes and other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights) Act, 2006 in the country; (b) if so, the details thereof along with the corrective measures taken by the Government including amendments to be made in the Act in this regard; (c) the details of the claims for distribution of titles lying pending under the Act, State/UT-wise along with the time by which these are likely to be settled; (d) whether some States have also shown concerns in the implementation of the Act, and (e) if so, the names thereof indicating the implementation status thereof by the States /UTs along with the corrective measures taken by the Government in this regard? ANSWER MINISTER OF TRIBAL AFFAIRS (SHRI V. KISHORE CHANDRA DEO) (a) to (e): A statement is laid on the Table of the House. Statement referred to reply to parts (a) to (e) of Lok Sabha Starred Question No. 275 (15th position) for answer on 15.03.2013 tabled by Shri Khagen Das & Shri Varun Gandhi regarding “Implementation of the Forest Rights Act, 2006”. (a) & (b) The Scheduled Tribe and Other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights) Act, 2006 had been enacted with the objective of remedying the historical injustice to the forest dwelling Scheduled Tribes and other traditional forest dwellers of the country. The Act became operational with the notification of Rules on 01-01- 2008. The Ministry noticed several problems impeding the implementation of the Act in letter and spirit, which inter-alia included convening of Gram Sabha meetings at the panchayat level (in some cases) resulting in exclusion of smaller habitations not formally part of any village; non-recognition of un-hindered absolute rights over the minor forest produce (MFP) to forest dwellers; continuance of monopoly of the State Forest Corporations in the trade of high value MFPs; rejection of claims without assigning any reason; claimants not being informed about rejection of claims thereby denying them the opportunity to appeal against rejection; insistence on particular type of evidence for accepting claims; introducing extraneous evidences such as satellite imagery to reject claims duly supported by 4 | Page evidences required under the Rule; lack of awareness about community rights, non-recognition of rights in National Parks and Sanctuaries etc. The Ministry undertook an exercise to arrive at certain provisions and steps for facilitating robust implementation of the Act. Based on the outcome of the said exercise, the Ministry has issued comprehensive guidelines to the State/UT Governments on 12.7.2012 for better implementation of the Act and followed it up by amending the Forest Rights Rules on 06-09-2012 to remove the impediments in the implementation of FRA in letter and spirit.
