EX-IFS officer challenges amendment in Forest Act, Supreme Court issues notice to Centre

Retired Indian Forest Officers filed a plea alleging that the amendment would worsen the effects of climate change. The petitioners argue that the amendment undermines India's forest governance regime and violates previous court rulings. They also claim that the amendment leaves vulnerable forest areas unprotected.
