Which forest product was first nationalized in Madhya Pradesh?

  • A.Timber
  • B.Bamboo
  • C.Gum
  • D.Tendupatta

Answer: D

The first forest product nationalised in Madhya Pradesh was tendupatta.

Tendu leaves (Diospyros melanoxylon), used to roll bidis, were nationalised in Madhya Pradesh in 1964, so that the State took over their trade from private contractors. Collection is now organised through primary forest produce co-operative societies, and the collectors share in the profits.

Timber, bamboo and gum are also important forest products, but tendupatta was the first to be brought under State monopoly.
