The forest resource should be preserved for the future generation, said ZP President K P Sucharitha Shetty.
Speaking after inaugurating a training programme for Grama Aranya Samithi members in Venoor organised by Moodabidri division forest department, he said destruction of forests results in the imbalance in nature and reduction in the ground water level. Preserving forest as holy as performing pooja.
He said Grama Aranya Samithi as important as Gram Panchayat. In the name of development, forest resources should not be destroyed.
Mr Shetty said Grama Aranya Samithi members along with the forest department officials should actively involve in the implementation of government projects.
