AS part of its age-old practice of conservation, the Gram Sabha holds an annual meeting to appoint a group of forest guards to protect the Buruma forests under Murhu block of Khunti in Jharkhand.
The Gram Sabha, held in each of the four villages falling under Hetegoa Panchayat, deputes one person from every house to prevent felling of trees.
In case a guard fails to discharge his duties efficiently, a penalty ranging from ₹150-200 is imposed on him, depending upon the decision taken by the respective Gram Sabha.
Buruma forest is spread over about 400 acres around four villages of the Murhu block.
