There has always been a need for a Public hearing over the Kamle Forest Division since its creation.

"Unlike every district which has their own demarcated Forest Division the Kamle district has been deprived of it, hence the Public of the concerned district demanded a separate Forest Division " informed Biku Aka CEO Kamle times to the SPACE Media.

The team SPACE  had a conversation with the Range Forest Officer and nodal officer for the creation of Kamle forest division, Bunty Tao, where he informed about the outcome of the Public hearing. "

"Proposed boundary between Kamle and Lower Subansiri district was discussed among the concern villagers, and later on having provided their opinion over the issue, the Hon'ble Education Minister Taba Tedir & the Concern Kamle MLA Tarin Dakpe  endorsed the Deputy Commissioner of both the district to  work together with the community residing in either side of the boundary and bring forth an amicable solution" added Tao (RFO)

Tao further informed that the Public hearing headed by the Hapoli Forest Division DFO Abhinav Kumar, stated: “the Tale Wildlife Sanctuary shall remain intact under the control of Hapoli forest division.” 

 "Public are satisfied with the hearing and are ready to solve it amicably, but they demand authorities to more ground visit " stated Tao.

Having interviewed by the SPACE media over the exact boundary, the RFO informed that, "The 25 km point (hillside) on the Ziro-Daporijo road has been regarded by many, but since it  is just a sketched map which has no proper scale, viz notional map, it has created confusion, however community of both the district shall solve it amicably"

The southern boundary of the Kamle forest division will start from 25 km point on the Ziro-Daporijo road and follow a straight line till it meets the trijunction point of Tale reserve forest and Tale Wildlife Sanctuary.”

“The forest department proposes a boundary for creation of the proposed Kamle forest division parallel with the revenue district boundary, as per government guidelines and criteria"

Welcoming the decision, the minister and the MLA sought cooperation from all the people of the districts to amicably resolve the boundary demarcation issues in the larger interest of society.

"The DCs of Lower Subansiri and Kamle shall conduct village-level meetings and hearings regarding the creation of the Kamle forest division"__added RFO Tao.
