Ecological Loss Due to Scrubland Burning in Mahadev Hill Range, Aundh

by Namdev Telore, Raja Shripatrao Bhagwantrao Mahavidyalaya, Shivaji University Kolhapur, Satara, India

The Mahadev Hill Range, Aundh (Satara), is facing severe ecological damage due to frequent scrub-land fires. These fires destroy vegetation, degrade soil, disrupt groundwater recharge and contribute to air pollution.
