What percent of land area in hills should be under forest, as per the National Forest Policy, 1952?
Answer: B
The National Forest Policy, 1952 prescribed 60% of land area under forest in the hills.
The policy set a national goal of one third of the total land area under forest, made up of 60% in the hills, to prevent erosion and protect catchments, and 25% in the plains. The National Forest Policy of 1988 kept the one-third goal and the two-thirds target for hills.
33% is the overall national goal, not the figure for hills, and 50% does not appear in the 1952 policy, so 'None of the above' is also wrong.
