It can be seen from the table that on average people were able to mange 25 per cent fuel from their own farms and to cover the gap 78.00 per cent households were dependent on forests. As far as fodder is concerned, to cover the gap which was 55.00 percent, majority of the people (82.00 per cent) were dependent on forests. Suggestions • Rural infrastructure like village roads, drinking water, and sanitation needs to be developed and strengthened. •
Health sub-centers may be provided with proper building and staff at Gram Panchayat level.
•
Family planning campaign needs to be started at Gram Panchayat level. Awards should be given to Gram Panchayats with low decadal variation form the average of state.
•
The occurrence of school dropouts has been quite high as we move from primary to middle and similar pattern is clearly visible for higher education. Comprehensive CAT Plan of Satluj River Basin

•
In order to raise the socio-economic status, increase employment opportunities and generate self confidence, the top priority is to be given for their education. The education will help in providing their participation in economic activities and add to their productivity.
•
The overall literacy rate of women is low as compared to men folk. Keeping in view the active role played by women in home management special schemes should be introduced to get her more educated.
•
Social participation should be encouraged. People should be educated regarding rural social institutions and encouraged to build these institutions as no existence of social participation is noticed in youth clubs and self help groups. During People Rural Appraisal it has come to notice that most of the people are not having knowledge about development activities. This can also be taken care be enhancing their social participation.
•
In the study area major source of family income is agriculture/horticulture. Every farmer who wants to expand or even maintain his or her business invariably needs cash. The need for cash implies a need for credit, and as most small scale farmers need relatively small amounts of credit. Microcredit is not always the solution farmers are looking for, and they benefit from it less than other sectors. Their need for credit may be relatively small, but it is larger than that of the average micro-entrepreneur. Farmers need access to credit over a long period of time as they have to wait until harvest time or later, until they can pay back a loan. Unlike other micro-enterprises, agriculture cannot sustain above market interest rates as the financial returns are not high enough. Keeping this in view government should make efforts for microfinance instead of microcredit.
•
Majority of people in study area are marketing their produce to private parties but resentment was also there among the people that private parties are not purchasing their produce at proper rates. Government should do efforts in this respect.
•
The presence of banks remains quite low in study area. The banks already working in the study area has gained no confidence among local people. People prefer to borrow money from relatives. Bank people are required to establish rapport with villagers to win their confidence.
•
In order to make the people economically better off, there is dire need to introduce new income generating activities as suggested by them. Proper training should be imparted to them to start new activities. Existing income generating activities should be strengthened by making them more trained. Women folk should be trained to improve their economic status. Improved economic status will lead to increase in empowerment of women and also enable them to participate increasingly in decision making in the family and society, which at present is more or less the exclusive domain of the men folk.
•
There exists a gap in fodder requirement and which is mostly met with from forests. To meet put this gap new species of fodder trees and grasses and improved management practices (Agronomic practices and fertilization application) should be popularized.
•
To cover the gap in fuel majority of people re dependent on forests for fuel wood. To release the pressure of forests alternative sources like solar energy, bio-gas should be encouraged. An investment in this direction can be cheaper and more eco-friendly source electrification.
•
Pressure cookers should be provided to them on subsidized rates.

Training should be imparted to women to save energy. Wood saving devices like improved chullas should be introduced.
