Forest Area Subject to Legal Proceedings for Encroachment

This refers to the offense of encroaching on forest land under the National Park Act, covering acts from gathering or removing natural resources to seizing or possessing land. It demonstrates that the state does not permit the use of national park areas for purposes other than tourism and research, which overlooks local people who may access and utilize the area in ways that are friendly to nature. Furthermore, those committing this offense may be acting out of necessity for survival or for profit. However, the wording of the law leads to the blanket inclusion of groups who were in need and residing in the area before the forest zone was declared, thereby classifying them as forest encroachers as well.
