PASSAGE 1
The word “Forest” is understood as a dense growth of trees and shrubs covering a large area‟ from its
dictionary meaning. However defining a forest is not easy. The definition of Forest is as diverse as its
diversity in terms of types, species composition, goods and services it provides, etc. Forest types differ
widely, determined by factors including latitude, temperature, rainfall patterns, soil composition and
human activity. How a forest is defined also depends on who is defining. People living in the British
Isles or Scandinavia might identify forests differently from people in Africa or Asia. Similarly, a

laws of India.
CP/17/C4
business person or economist might define and value a forest in a very different way from a forester,
farmer or an ornithologist. A legal definition is different from an ecological definition.
A recent study of the various definitions of forests found that more than 800 different definitions for
forests and wooded areas were in use round the world – with some countries adopting several such
definitions at the same time.
The Indian Forest Act, 1927 was largely based on previous Indian Forest Acts implemented under the
British. The most famous one was the Indian Forest Act of 1878. Both the 1878 act and the 1927 one
sought to consolidate and reserve the areas having forest cover, or significant wildlife, to regulate
movement and transit of forest produce, and duty leviable on timber and other forest produce. It also
defines the procedure to be followed for declaring an area to be a Reserved Forest, a Protected Forest
or a Village Forest.

PASSAGE 2
Presumption against alteration of the existing law more than is necessary. Statutes should be construed
as far as possible in conformity with the common law rather than against it. The presumption requires
clear and unequivocal language to alter the common law. Legislation must be interpreted in light of the
common law, must as far as possible be reconciled with related precepts of the common law and must
be read to be capable of co-existing with common law in pari materia. The presumption relates to
common law and existing statutes and customary law.
This presumption reflects an inherent respect and esteem for our common law heritage. Common law
is seen as the basis of the current law and statute law is thought to be an exception to common law.
The presumption means that in interpreting subsequent act, it is assumed that the legislature did not
intend to repeal or modify the earlier Act. Any repeal or amendment must be effected expressly or by
necessary implication.

laws of India.
CP/17/C4
This presumption enhances legal certainty as it discourages an undue destabilisation or unsettlement of

the law as it stands. It also manifests esteem for the worth of the common law as the outcome of
historical evolution.
It is presumed that the legislature does not intend legislation which is futile (useless) or nugatory. The
legislature intended to make sensible or intelligent provisions. The court has to determine the purpose
of legislation and give effect to it. Since statutory interpretation is a purpose seeking activity, this
presumption constitutes its very essence. The foundation of this presumption is the acknowledgement
that legislation has a functional purpose and object. Legislation should as far as possible be kept alive.
22. Which of the following should be construed in conformity with the common law?
