1. I inspected the site on 02.12.2020 and found that the proposed non linear area of 0.62 Ha for Creation of Christian Burial Ground falls within Madukkarai Forest Block – V Reserved land. 2. The proposed area for diversion does not have any archeological and heritage related monuments. 3. There is no Tribal Right affected by this project. 4. Flagship species like tiger is not available in this Reserved Land. Hence there is no threat to major wildlife species. 5. This project in Madukkarai Forest Block – V Reserved land has minimum effects on environment. Hence I recommend that an area of 0.62 Ha. of Forest land in the Madukkarai Forest Block – V Reserved land in Madukkarai Range of Coimbatore Forest Division may be diverted for Creation of Christian Burial Ground.

No alternative non forest land is available for this project. The proposal is for public oriented purposes. It is not likely to adversely impact on forest and wildlife.
