Under which Act, right to collect minor forest produce, etc. from forest was granted to tribals and other forest dwellers ?
Answer: B
The right was granted by the Forest Rights Act, 2006.
The Scheduled Tribes and Other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights) Act, 2006 recognises, among other rights, the right of ownership, access to collect, use and dispose of minor forest produce traditionally collected within or outside village boundaries.
The Wildlife Protection Act, 1972 and the Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980 restrict use of forests and wildlife, and the Indian Forest Act, 1927 gave the state control over forests rather than granting such rights.
