3. Inputs
3.1 Are personnel well organised and managed with access to adequate resources?
Assessment criteria
Condition Category* (Tick ü) Remarks
Few, if any, personnel explicitly allocated
for PA management.
Poor
Some personnel explicitly allocated for PA
management but not systematically linked
to management objectives.
Fair ü
Some personnel explicitly allocated
towards achievement of specific
management objectives.
Adequate personnel explicitly allocated
towards achievement of specific
management objectives.
Good
Very good
In the Management Plan, 5 Ranges, 10 Blocks
and 25 beats have proposed against which only
2 Ranges, 2 Blocks and 19 beats are existing.
Out of 46 forest compartments only 33 are in
possession of Park management. Looking at the
difficult terrain, adverse climate and high biotic
pressure the staff strength is poor. Other
resources such as equipment for high altitude
trekking, Arms, camping equipment etc. are also
poor.
3.2 Are resources (vehicle, equipment, building etc.) well organised and managed with access to
adequate resources?
Assessment criteria
Condition Category* (Tick ü) Remarks
Few, if any, resources explicitly allocated
for PA management.
Poor
Some resources explicitly allocated for PA
management but not systematically linked
to management objectives.
Fair ü
Some resources explicitly allocated
towards achievement of specific
management objectives.
Adequate resources explicitly allocated
towards achievement of specific
management objectives.
Good
Very good
There is no road access in the Park and vehicles
are needed only by top management. Equipment
for high altitude tracking and camping are
inadequate and the condition of buildings and
roads specially bridges over fast flowing streams
is very bad and needs immediate attention.
*Score: Poor: 2.5; Fair: 5; Good: 7.5; Very Good: 10
