First forest policy of independent India was promulgated in the year
Answer: D
The first forest policy of independent India was promulgated in 1952.
The National Forest Policy of 1952 set the goal of bringing one-third of India's land area under forest (60 per cent in the hills and 25 per cent in the plains) and stressed the needs of defence, industry and communications. It was replaced by the National Forest Policy of 1988, which put ecological balance first.
The earlier forest policy of 1894 belonged to the colonial period. 1950, 1954 and 1956 are not policy years.
