Uttarakhand government continues proactive approach towards welfare of forest personnel serving in remote regions
Oct 11, 2025
"Our forest personnel work tirelessly in challenging conditions to protect the state's valuable forest resources and wildlife. During their postings at distant and inaccessible outposts, they are often required to stay away from their families. Arranging separate accommodation for their families becomes a major concern in such circumstances. Understanding this hardship, the government has decided to grant a housing allowance to those forest personnel stationed in remote areas where basic facilities such as healthcare and education are not available," Chief Minister Dhami said in a statement.
