What @PrakashJavdekar is saying that the amendments were an unofficial exercise cooked up by forest bureaucrats and some non-government org. like @WWFINDIA - and this unofficial draft was circulated to state governments

@PrakashJavdekar @WWFINDIA @MundaArjun @narendramodi The provision in the amendment which invited criticism was the one which allowed "forest officials to use arms against people to prevent forest offence." So a cabal of forest officers and NGOs circulate draft of a law allowing officers to shoot tribal and completely subverts FRA

@PrakashJavdekar @WWFINDIA @MundaArjun @narendramodi And send it to state governments unofficially - Question is @PrakashJavdekar ji - have you taken action against the respective officers and NGOs who have violated your trust and tried to carry out a legislative coup under your nose @nit_set @journomayank @LouDelBello @NihaMasih

@PrakashJavdekar @WWFINDIA @MundaArjun @narendramodi @nit_set @journomayank @LouDelBello @NihaMasih Please see the above thread on the dangerous IFA amendments just "withdrawn" by @moefcc - @INCIndia @Jairam_Ramesh @anandrai177 @HemantSorenJMM @MundaArjun @narendramodi @jayashreenandi @Kum_Sambhav @nihargokhale @CsdIndia @AdivasisMatter @m_ogada @StephenCorrySvl
