In spite of being endowed with biodiversity, the wildlife has come under constant extreme pressure owing to a number of factors. Due to the first RSG project, they are managing under community forestry program. So, this forest area could be developed for both conservation as well as their livelihood by proper strategy. Capacity of community forest users' and local stakeholders for conservation friendly forest management, advocacy for conservation and institutional strengthening of local level stakeholders has been increased but not sufficient by the first RSG project. To continue first RSG project we plan to develop NTFP-based enterprise development which is a feasible as well as a desirable strategy for increasing rural incomes from community forestry.

In order to have NTFP-based enterprise development, sustainable community forest management incorporating the conservation and commercial utilization of potential products (NTFPs) is necessary as a pre-condition. For this purpose local stakeholders will harvest the NTFPs that promotes the biodiversity as well as income generation by the second RSG project. It will have developed its long term commitment for biodiversity conservation in the area.
