Amazing effort by the communities! Really touching documentary!
Dear Mr. Dixit,
Thank you for your interest and I'm glad to learn that you found this video interesting. It is available on the Youtube. You may click this link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RErh6eL8lRA
It is fortunate to know that these Community-based conservation initiatives are taught in many schools in the Hampshire County Council, UK as a part of their Geography course. However, it is the opposite in our case, it is rather disappointing that the very part of the world where these initiatives took life were not even recognized.

It is interesting and very educative...how can we download/save this video...so that we can show it to others...

CBCIs are age old practices, they were meticulously dismantled by the British during the colonial time and suffers from lack of recognition and severe negligence under the conservation laws and policies (that are imported from the West) we had been following. What CBCIs need is legal recognition and I'm sure that will pave the way for their revival and restoration. Hope FRA 2006 will provide that recognition for CBCIs.
Thank you for appreciating such initiatives and age old practices.

Possible...we must replicate
