Background:
Recent climatic changes coupled with human activities such as irrigation, deforestation and diversion in the area leading to siltation of the river mouth, the inflow has been drastically reduced leading to a multiplied effect on both the ecology of the ecosystem and the socio-economy of the area. This province has been left behind while reafforestration is going on in other provinces. Tree cutting in this province has been the daily human source of income. Nobody has ever planted even one tree in this province. Forests are no more forest and their identities are not known.
