FOREST FIRE’S IMPACT ON COMMUNITY AND GOVERNMENT POLICIES IN HIMACHAL PRADESH: A CASE STUDY OF THE PARVATI VALLEY

Background: - The Himalayas have experienced repeated forest fires during the past few summers, particularly in the eastern part of the state of Himachal Pradesh in the Kullu district, which includes Kasol and other areas of the Parvati Valley. This study analyzes the significant loss of flora, degradation of soil and forests, loss of biodiversity, and imbalanced climate conditions are all consequences of forests losing carbon to the atmosphere which further leads to the imbalance in forest ecosystems. Methods: - Every distribution was physically audited after it was assembled, and copy records were eliminated. We took a gander at the article titles, edited compositions, and catchphrases first. The full text was checked if a choice about a distribution's consideration couldn't be made founded exclusively on the theoretical. The information pool included 150 distributions from the years 2012 to 2022, spread across eight different report classes. Results: - Enormous scope industrialization, deforestation, and uncontrolled abuse of other normal assets have expanded pollution, causing environmental change on a worldwide scale. This natural change welcomed by human action has raised the normal worldwide temperature, causing the Himalayan ice covers to liquefy rashly and prompting an expansion in water-related catastrophes. Conclusion: - It is crucial to increase the capacity of backwoods executive functionaries at various levels to produce appropriate advance notice and translate it into useful data for field personnel and others to move fire advance notice data in a competent and ideal manner. Additionally, it is necessary to prepare maps of backcountry fire vulnerability in light of historical data and many elements, such as forest vegetation and weather patterns.
