The total population of Maharashtra as of 1st March 2001 stood at 79,387,949 as per the
provisional results of the Census of India 2001. In terms of population it holds the secound
position among the States and Union territories in the country. As against all India decadal
growth rate of population 24.64% during 1991-2001, in Maharashtra this has further slipped to
16.39% from 20.39% during 1981-1991. The sex ratio (i.e., the number of females per thousand
males) of population in the State has improved from 922 in the present census. The literacy rate
in the State has shown remarkable improvement. This has increased to 79.74% when compared
to 66.66% ten years back during 1991 Census.
Environment
Maharashtra is endowed with rich forests extending over an area of 43,877 sq. Kms. This
constitutes 47.69% of the State's Geographic area. The Western Ghats in this State is a repository
of rich bio-diversity in which several endangered and threatened flora and fauna are found.
Maharashtra also possesses rich diversity in its mangroves and wetlands at Ramtek and Hingana.
However one-third of the forest area is estimated to be degraded due to anthropogenic forces like
illicit felling, over grazing and forest fire.
The National Forest Policy, 1988 sets the basic objectives, essentials and strategies of forest
management. The principal aim of this Policy is to ensure environmental stability and
maintenance of ecological balance including atmospheric equilibrium, which is vital for
sustenance of all life forms, human, animal and plants. The derivation of direct economic benefit
is to be subordinated to this principal aim.
Pollution, deforestation and wildlife trade of the aspirations of more than one billion people.
These are some of the critical issues that India grapples with every day. But as the country’s
info@ashokaconsultant.com
Environmental Awareness Project
population and economy continue to grow, the need to find solutions becomes more urgent every
day.
Across India, concern is mounting over an ever growing list of environmental problems.
More people means increased pressure on natural resources (from water to forests), while an
economy in high-gear is leaving a trail of pollution that’s affecting not only India, but the rest of
the world too.
Deforestation
India is witnessing a rising demand for forest-based products. This is causing deforestation and
encroachment into forest protected areas, which leads to a severe loss of natural resources.
It is estimated that total industrial round wood consumption in India could exceed 75 million m 3
per year by the end of the decade (445,000 large shipping containers), while domestic supply
would fall short of this figure by an estimated 16 million m3.
As the nation will have to depend heavily on imports to meet this growing demand, there is fear
that this could result in loss of high conservation value forests and biodiversity elsewhere.
Pollution
Increasing competition for water among various sectors, including agriculture, industry,
domestic, drinking, energy generation and others, is causing this precious natural resource to dry
up. Increasing pollution is also leading to the destruction of the habitat of wildlife that lives in
waterways.
