Scientific forestry, at its core, was a system of managing forests for timber yield, not for the people who lived with them. Brandis was brought in to impose this order, to turn our living forests into a calculated resource. I spent my career trying to mend that very rift, baba. For every rule in a manual, I saw a villager’s face, remembering how my own grandfather in Bankura was once called a trespasser in his own ancestral woods.
