Prime
Minister, Narendra Modi and Minister for Environment,
Forest and Climate Change Shri Prakash Javadekar have delivered a coup de grace to arm chair conservationists, while they reconstituted
National Board for Wildlife, India. For far too long, arm chair
conservationists from Delhi and Mumbai have been calling the shots entrenching
themselves in successive boards, with their political clout.
The
names of the members of the newly constituted board, reads like who is who of
India’s best field men. They know the heart throb of India’s wildlife. An even
better aspect is their thorough knowledge of the problems relating to
protection and the hardships experienced by the frontline soldiers of conservation.
I am sure all these augurs well for India’s wildlife. I have no hesitation in
rating this as the best board India has seen to this date.
I
wish the new members the very best in their endeavours to promote the welfare
of India’s wildlife. I salute Narendra Modiji and Prakash
Javadekarji for the excellent work they have
done

Alembathji, you have centered on a real target, Yes, arm chair conservationists, who stay in five star hotels and preach from the chairs of cossetted air conditioned rooms or write in fancy journals, shedding crocodile tears had a field day till the other day. These are things any fool can do if he has money. The real work is done by men toiling in the field and upright forest officers have done yeomen service for wildlife conservation. The move to put retired forest officers of proven integrity in the board is a right step.
