Abstract

Relocations are made for developmental- and conservation-induced scenario. Conservation-induced relocations are different from developmental-induced relocations, in the sense that site is vacated due to it is environmentally improved. There are a lot of studies on social impact of conservation-induced relocation, but very few studies have been undertaken on environmental gains through it. With more emphasis on maintaining ecological balance and sustenance of biodiversity, nowadays conservation-induced relocation is taking place, specially, within the protected areas. Therefore, research to assess ecological and environmental gains is needed, so as to judge objectively very aim of such relocation. Studies related to pros and cons, need and necessities, and areas of existing studies about relocation for biodiversity conservation with reference to protected areas have been dealt in this paper. Based on the above studies, broader fields are assessed, in which further research and study are required, toward environmental gains through such relocation.
