Kangra MP talks of amending forest laws

Dharamsala, June 18
Newly elected Kangra BJP MP Rajan Sushant today held a meeting with district officials for the first time. While talking to mediapersons, he said people were facing problems due to stringent forest and wildlife sanctuary laws.

Unmindful of the fact that felling in notified forest areas and the wildlife sanctuaries has been banned after the rulings of the Supreme Court, Rajan Sushant said he would get the laws changed. He said the laws that were not beneficial for people, should be changed.

However, the MP did not consider protection of forests and green cover to be beneficial in the larger interest of the mankind.

Rajan Sushant also claimed that he would take up the matter of the Pong Dam, Bhakra and Chamera project oustees in the Lok Sabha.
