What is the main objective of the 'Amrit Dharohar' scheme launched in 2023?
Wetland ecosystem protection
Wetland ecosystem protection is correct.
Amrit Dharohar was announced in the Union Budget 2023-24 and launched by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change in June 2023. It aims to encourage the optimal use of wetlands and to enhance their biodiversity, carbon stock, eco-tourism opportunities and income for local communities over a period of three years.
The scheme focuses on India's Ramsar sites, the wetlands of international importance, through four components: species and habitat conservation, nature tourism, wetland livelihoods and wetland carbon. River conservation falls under programmes such as Namami Gange, wildlife protection under schemes like Project Tiger, and air pollution control under the National Clean Air Programme, so wetland protection is its main objective.
