This document discusses deforestation and the rise of commercial forestry in colonial India and Java. It summarizes that deforestation increased under colonial rule due to demands for timber, railways, and plantations. The British established scientific forestry practices to manage forests, which disrupted local communities' access and rights. This led to rebellions like one in 1910 in Bastar, India as people resisted the new forest rules. The Dutch similarly established control over forests in Java for timber.

Within about a hundred years, the British took control of almost every aspect of life in India. Many Indians began to feel that the British control had to end to make India the country for Indians.After 1850, many political associations were formed. Most of them were formed in the 1870s and 1880s. Most of these associations were led by English-educated professionals. Some of the important ones were; the Poona Sarvajanik Sabha, the Indian Association, the Madras Mahajan Sabha, the Bombay Presidency Association.

This PPT will take you into the forest and tell you about the variety of ways the forests were used by communities living within them. It will show how in the nineteenth century the growth of Industries and urban centers created a new demand on the forests for timber and other forest products. New demands led to new rules of forests use, new ways of organizing the forests. All these developments affected the lives of those local communities who used forest resources. They were forced t operate within new systems and reorganise their lives. But they also rebelled against the rules and persuaded the state to change its policies. Will give you and idea of the history of such developments in India and Indonesia.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

4. INTRODUCTION
This chapter is mainly related to
forests and the affects on them.
Take a quick look around your school
or home and identify all the things that
come from forest : the paper, the desk,
clothes etc. You will observe that most
of the things which we use are obtained
from forests .It is a vast diversity.
A lot of this diversity is fast
disappearing .Between 1700 and 1995,
the period o industrialization, 13.9
million sq.km of forest or 9.3% of the
world’s total area was cleared for
industrial uses, cultivation, pastures
Done by:-A.Kamalesh Jayapandiaraj
5. WHY DEFORESTATION?
DEFORESTATION: The disappearance of
forests is referred as deforestation.
Deforestation is not a recent problem. The process
began many centuries ago; but under colonial rule
it became more systematic and extensive. Let us
look at some of the causes of deforestation in India
Done by:-A.Kamalesh Jayapandiaraj
6. LAND TO BE IMPROVED-
As population increased over the
centuries and the demand for food went
up, peasants extended the boundaries
of cultivation, clearing forests and
breaking new land .In the colonial
period, cultivation expanded rapidly for
a variety of reasons. Let us take a look
at these reasons-
Done by:-A.Kamalesh Jayapandiaraj
7. • 1-The British directly encouraged the
production of commercial crops like jute,
sugar, wheat, and cotton.
• 2- In the early 19th century, the colonial
state thought that forests were
unproductive. They were considered to be
wilderness that had to be brought under
cultivation so that the land could yield
agricultural products and revenue, and
enhance the income of the state.
Done by:-A.Kamalesh Jayapandiaraj
8. SLEEPESRS ON THE
TRACKS-
1st-By the early 19th century. Oak forests in England
were disappearing. This created a problem of
timber supply for the Royal Navy. Due to this
English ships could not be built. After that the
British started exporting timber from India .
Within a decade trees were being felled on a
massive scale an vast quantities of timber were
being exported from India.
Done by:-A.Kamalesh Jayapandiaraj
9. • 2nd-The spread of railways from the 1850”s created a new
demand. Railways were essential for colonial trade and for the
movement of imperial troops .To run locomotives, wood was
needed as fuel, and to lay railway lines sleepers were essential to
hold the tracks together. Each mile of railway track required
between 1760 and 2000 sleepers.
• Due to this the govt. gave out contracts to individuals to supply
the required quantities. These contractors began cutting trees
indiscriminately. Forests around the railway tracks fast started
disappearing.
Done by:-A.Kamalesh Jayapandiaraj
10. PLANTATIONS-
Large areas of natural forests were also cleared to
make way for tea, coffee, and rubber plantations to
meet Europe's growing needs of these commodities.
The colonial govt. took over the forests, and gave
vast areas to European planters at cheap rates. These
areas were enclosed and cleared of forests, and
planted with tea or coffee.
Done by:-A.Kamalesh Jayapandiaraj
11. THE RISE OF
COMMERCIAL FORESTRY
• As in the previous section we have seen that the
British needed forests in order to build ships and
railways.
• The British were worried that the use of forests by
local people and the reckless felling of trees by
traders would destroy forests.
• So they decided to invite a German expert, Dietrich
Brandis, for advice, and made him the first
Inspector General of Forests in India.
Done by:-A.Kamalesh Jayapandiaraj
12. • Brandis realised that a proper system had to be introduced
to manage the forests and people had to be trained in the
science of conservation. This system would need legal
sanction .
• So Brandis set up the Indian Forest Service in 1864 and
helped formulate the Indian Forest Act of 1865. The
Imperial Forest Research Institute was set up at Dehradun
in 1906. The system they introduced here was called
“SCIENTIFIC FORESTRY’’.
• In scientific forestry, natural forests which had lots of
different types of trees were cut down. In their place one
type of tree was planted in a straight row. This is called
Plantation.
• Forest officials made plans for forest management. They
planned how much of the plantation area to be cut every
year. The area to be cut was then to be replanted so that it
Done by:-A.Kamalesh Jayapandiaraj
was ready to be cut again in some years.
13. After the forest act was enacted in 1865, it was amended twice,
once in 1878 and then in 1927, The 1879 act divided forests into
three categories-
RESERVED
PROTECTED
VILLAGE FOREST
The best forests were called : “reserved forest’’. Villagers
could not take anything from these forests, even for their own
use. For house building or fuel, they could only take wood from
protected or village forest.
Done by:-A.Kamalesh Jayapandiaraj
14. HOW WERE THE LIVES OF
PEOPLE AFFECTED?
• In forest areas, people use forest products. Fruits, vegetables,
medicines, fuel etc. Almost everything is available in forest.
• The Forest Act meant severe hardship for villagers across the
country. After the Act all their daily practices became illegal.
• People were now forced to steal wood from the forests, and if
they were caught, they were at the mercy of the forest guards
who would take bribes for them.
• People grew poorer and poorer
Done by:-A.Kamalesh Jayapandiaraj
15. HOW DID FOREST RULES
AFFECT CULTIVATION?
One of the major impacts of European colonialism was on the
practice of shifting cultivation or swidden agriculture.
In shifting cultivation, parts of the forest are cut and burnt in
rotation. Seeds re sown in the ashes after the first monsoon rains,
and the crop is harvested by october-november. Such plots are
cultivated for a couple of years and then left fallow for 12 to 15
years.
European foresters regarded this practice as harmful for the forests.
Therefore, they decided to ban shifting cultivation.
As a result, many communities were forcibly displaced from their
homes in the forests.Some had to change occupations , while some
resisted large and small rebellions.
Done by:-A.Kamalesh Jayapandiaraj
16. WHO COULD HUNT?
• Before the forest laws, many people who lived in or near forests had
survived by hunting. This customary practice was prohibited by the
forest laws. Those who were caught hunting were now punished for
poaching.
• While the forest laws deprived people of their customary rights to hunt,
hunting of big game became a sport.
• The British saw large animals as signs of a wild, primitive and savage
society. They believed that by killing dangerous animals the British
would civilize India. THEY GAVE REWARDS FOR KILLING
Tigers, Wolves and other large animals on the grounds who
pose to be a threat to cultivators.
• The Maharaja Sarguja alone shot 1,157 tigers and 2000 leopards
Done by:-A.Kamalesh Jayapandiaraj
upto 1957. A British administrator, George Yuke, killed 400 tigers
17. NEW TRADES, NEW EMPLOYMENTS
AND NEW SERVICES-
• With the coming of British, however, trade was
completely regulated by the govt. Grazing and
Hunting by local people were restricted . In the
process, many communities like the Korava, Karacha
and Yerukula of the Madras Presidency lost their
livelihoods. Some of them began to be called as the
“criminal tribes’’ ,and were forced to work instead of
factories, mines and plantations, under govt.
supervision.
• In these jobs their wages were very low and conditions
of work were very bad. They could not return easily to
theirby:-A.Kamalesh Jayapandiaraj where they had been
Done home villages from
recruited.
18. REBELLION IN THE
FOREST
• In many parts of India, and across the world, forest
communities rebelled against the changes that were being
imposed on them. The leaders of these movements are still
remembered in songs and stories.
• We will now discuss in detail one such rebellion which took
place in the kingdom of Bastar in 1910.
Done by:-A.Kamalesh Jayapandiaraj
19. THE PEOPLE OF BASTAR
• BASTAR is located in the southernmost part of Chhattisgarh
and borders Andhra Pradesh, Orissa and Maharashtra.
• A number of different communities live in Bastar such as Maria
and Muria gonds, Dhurvas, Bhatras and Halbas.
• They speak different languages but share common customs and
beliefs.
• The people of Bastar believe that each village was given its land
by the Earth, and in return, they look after the Earth by making
some offerings at each agricultural festival. In addition to the
Earth, they show respect to the spirits of the river, the forest and
the mountain.
• Each village lookJayapandiaraj natural resources within their

boundaries. Every year there is a big hunt where the headmen of
20. THE FEARS OF THE
PEOPLE
• When the colonial govt. made up laws for the forests, the people of Bastar
were very worried. They saw it as a crime.
• People began to gather and discuss these issues in their village councils, in
bazaars and at festivals or whatever the headmen and priests of several villages
were assembled.
• The initiative was taken by the Dhurvas of the Kangar forest, where
reservation first took place. Although there was no single leader, many people
speak of Gunda Dhur, from village Nethanar as an important figure in the
movement.
• In 1910, mango boughs, a lump of earth, chilies and arrows, began circulating
between villages. These were actually messages inviting villagers to rebel
against the British.
• Bazaars were looted, the houses of officials and traders, schools and police
stations were burnt and robbed, and grain redistributed.
• The British sent troops to suppress the rebellion. They punished those who
participated in the rebellion . However they never managed to caught

Gunda Dhur.
21. FOREST TRANSFORMATION IN
JAVA
Java is now famous as a rice-producing island in Indonesia.
But once upon a time when it was mostly covered with
forests.
Java in Indonesia is where the Dutch started forest
management.
Like the British they wanted timber from Java to build ships.
Done by:-A.Kamalesh Jayapandiaraj
22. THE WOODCUTTERS OF
JAVA
• The Kalangs of Java were a community of skilled forest cutters and
shifting cultivators.
• The Dutch tried to make control over them but they failed.
DUTCH SCIENTIFIC FORESTRY
• In the 19th century, when it became important to control territory and
not just people, the Dutch enacted forest laws in Java. Those were
mainly same as that of India by the Britishers.
• In 1882, 280000 sleepers were alone transported from Java.
• Blandongdiensten system : In this system the Dutch first imposed
rents on land being cultivated in the forest and then exempted some
villages from these rents if they worked collectively to provide free
labour and buffaloes for cutting and transporting timber.
Done by:-A.Kamalesh Jayapandiaraj
23. SAMIN’S CHALLENGE
• Around 1890, Surontiko Samin of Randublatung village, a
teak forest village, began questioning state ownership of the
forest.
• He argued that the state had not created the wind,
water, earth and wood, so it could not own it. Soon a
widespread movement developed. Amongst those who helped
organise it were Samin’s sons-in-law.
• By 1907,3000 families were following his ideas. Some of the
Saminists protested by lying down on their land when the Dutch
came to survey it, while others refused to pay taxes or fines or
perform labour.
Done by:-A.Kamalesh Jayapandiaraj
24. WAR AND DEFORESTATION
• The First World War and the Second World War had a major impact
on forests. In India, working plans were abandoned at this time, and
the forest department cut trees freely to meet British war needs. In
Java, just before the Japanese Occupied the region, the Dutch
followed ‘a scorched earth’ policy, destroying sawmills, and burning
huge piles of giant teak logs so that they would not fall into Japanese
hands. The Japanese then exploited the forest recklessly for their
own war industries, forcing forest villagers to cut down forests.
• Many villagers used this opportunity to expand cultivation in the
forest. After the war, it was difficult for the Indonesian forest service
to get this land back. As in India, people’s need for agricultural land
has brought them into conflict with the forest departments desire to
control the land and exclude people from it.
Done by:-A.Kamalesh Jayapandiaraj
25. NEW DEVLOPMENTS IN
FORESTRY
Since the 1980s, govt. across Asia and
Africa have begun to see that scientific
forestry and the policy of keeping forest
communities away from forests has
resulted in many conflicts. So the govt. is
now looking to different forms of forest
management.
