💨 Abstract

The Uttarakhand government informed the Supreme Court that the majority of Compensatory Afforestation Fund Management and Planning Authority (CAMPA) funds were spent on forestation activities and preservation. However, certain funds were misused by forest department officials for personal items such as furniture, an iPhone, and laptops. The state assured departmental action against the erring officials and stated that the deviations were trivial.
