Senior advocate Shyam Dewan while filing the petition has said that 31 percent of incidents of attacks on forest officers have been observed in India every year. In states like Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, officers on duty are attacked with extreme vandalism. Amicus Cure ADN Rao and Solicitor General Tushar Mehta along with Advocate Shyam Dewan have also made their case before the court regarding this case.

It has been learned that SG Tushar Mehta said that along with the illegal trade of wildlife, as well as for the theft of wood, forest officers are attacked. Shyam Dewan said that a forest ranger is in such a situation during his duty, according to the information received, he cannot even call the policeman for help. There is no one to help them in the forest.
