Legal aspect of sandalwood
• Sandalwood plants are widely distributed in the southern states like, Karnataka,Tamil Nadu, AndhrPradesh and Kerala,hence, defined sandalwood as a “forest produce”, where as “Indian Forest Act”does not have any special provisions for sandalwood• The legal hassles faced by the Sandalwood trade regulation is that there is no comprehensive regulation applicable to the entire country. • The clandestine trade is flourishing and Sandalwood population declining which is in the verge of extinction and Sandalwood is classified as one of the endangered plant specie in India.
