Discussion
Consider the statements about Lok Vaniki Scheme of Madhya Pradesh :
(a) Lok Vaniki will be done mainly by the people themselves through associations and elected bodies.
(b) It encourages the development of forestry on private land.
(c) Lok Vaniki Scheme started in the year 1999.
(d) The major focus of this scheme is on promoting scientific management of neglected and degraded land.
Which statement(s) is/are correct?
Answer: D
The keyed answer is (a), (b), (c) and (d).
The Lok Vaniki scheme was launched in Madhya Pradesh in 1999, so (c) is correct. Its aim is the scientific management of neglected and degraded forest land held privately, so (b) and (d) are correct. It was later given a legal basis by the state's public forestry law of 2001. Statement (a) matches the idea behind the scheme, handing management back to the people themselves, but the part about associations and elected bodies could not be confirmed in the sources found, which mention individual owners and village bodies.
Option A is incomplete, and options B and C each drop a statement that the sources support. The official key accepts all four.
