About CAMPA

CAMPA was created to ensure that funds deposited by various User Agencies in lieu of diversion of Forest areas for non-forestry purposes against Compensatory Afforestation, Net present value (NPV) and interest accrued are effectively utilized for the restoration and development of forest ecosystems to compensate the loss of forest cover.

It It operates under the Compensatory Afforestation Fund Act, 2016, which provides a legal framework for the deposition, management, and utilization of these funds. The CAMPA Act aims to minimize the impact of forest land diversion for non-forest purposes by ensuring that funds are promptly, efficiently, and transparently released and utilized through a well-defined institutional mechanism.
