Abstract

When it comes to saving biodiversity, India leaves no stones unturned to present a positive image at international forums like the Convention on Biological Diversity (cbd). India protects its biodiverse areas and maintains sanctuaries and national parks. It makes extensive 10-year management plans for each protected area and implements them in each of the 595 protected areas. It has a huge staff, a body of trained officials along with specialised courses for wildlife protection. There may be instances of decline of the tiger population at a particular park, but to India's advantage, the other member countries of cbd are so resource poor that cannot make a similar impression.
