Section 7 of WLPA : Section 7: Procedure To Be Followed By The Board

Explanation using Example

Imagine a scenario where the State Wildlife Board, established under The Wild Life (Protection) Act, 1972, is responsible for making decisions about the conservation and management of wildlife in the state. According to Section 7 of the Act:

• The Board must convene at least twice a year to discuss various issues such as the creation of new protected areas, strategies for combating poaching, or measures to deal with human-wildlife conflicts.
• During these meetings, the Board has the autonomy to decide how the meetings will be conducted, including what constitutes a quorum for the meetings to be considered valid.
• If there is a vacancy on the Board or if there are some procedural mistakes made during the meetings, the decisions made will still be valid as long as these issues do not affect the actual substance of the decisions.
