In accordance with the National Forest Policy 1952, what percentage of land should be covered by forest?

  • A.25%
  • B.33%
  • C.30%
  • D.40%

Answer: B

The 1952 policy aimed at 33% forest cover.

The National Forest Policy of 1952, independent India's first, laid down that the country as a whole should aim at maintaining one-third of its land area under forest: 60% in the hills and 20% in the plains. The 1988 policy kept the same one-third national goal.

25%, 30% and 40% do not match the figure of one-third set by either policy.
