How did local peoples access to forests become after Forest Acts?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Became restricted in many areas

After the Forest Acts, the colonial government increased its control over forests and declared many areas as reserved forests. Local people faced restrictions on traditional activities such as grazing, collecting wood, hunting, and shifting cultivation. Therefore, their access to forests became restricted in many areas. Option B is incorrect because forests did not remain open to everyone. Exam tip: remember that Forest Acts curtailed traditional forest rights of local communities.
