ap plicable to conditions infl949 gt1t istrue that some progress has beenmade and that here and there projects have been carried out which improved the situation But it is also truerthat there has been going on aprocess of deterioration so that the overall situation does not seem to be greatly improved Deforestation is going on along with reforestation It might be not ed that the process
