Missions to the property until 1997**
January 1997: World Heritage Centre mission
Information presented to the Bureau of the World Heritage Committee in 1997
At its last session (Merida, 1996), the Committee noted that following discussions between the Centre and the Indian Government, a mission to Manas had been planned in late-January 1997. The Ministry for Environment and Forests (MOEF) of India, hosted a World Natural Heritage Site Managers' Meeting for South Asia, during 16-19 January 1997, in New Delhi and Keoladeo National Park (World Heritage site). The Director of Manas presented a report on the state of conservation of Manas at that Meeting. One of the Centre staff who participated in the Meeting, accompanied the Deputy Inspector for Wildlife in India on a mission to Manas during 20-22 January, 1997. As the Centre awaits the receipt of a state of conservation report and a rehabilitation plan for Manas, from MOEF, a summary of findings based on the written report presented at the Meeting by the Director of Manas, and the site-visit to Manas, are provided below:
(i) Bodo people, inhabiting lands in the vicinity of the Manas Wildlife Sanctuary, intensified militant action in 1989. The negative impacts of Bodo militancy peaked in 1992-93, when 19 of the 31 ranger and guard units were destroyed. As the infrastructure for the protection of Manas weakened and staff became demoralized, poachers took a heavy toll of wildlife populations within Manas. The greater one-horned rhinoceros was the most adversely affected species; 33 rhinos were poached during 1992-93;
(ii) Since 1993, when the work of the Bodo Autonomous Council to demarcate an area within the State of Assam for Bodo people gathered momentum, militant activity has diminished and Manas authorities have been able to improve relationships with surrounding villagers and seek their support for conservation. Peace and order in and around Manas have been re-established; an estimated 8,000 tourists visited Manas in 1996;
(iii) Ranger and guard units remain damaged and are in urgent need of repair and/or reconstruction. The poaching threat continues to prevail as the mobility and the communications capability of Manas staff are quite limited; and
(iv) The MOEF, together with the State Forest Department of Assam and the Directorate of the Manas Wildlife Sanctuary is elaborating a rehabilitation plan for Manas, including the reconstruction and significant upgrading of the infrastructure to ensure adequate protection. The plan is estimated to cost US$ 6 million, most of which will be met by the Government of India and the State Government of Assam. The MOEF however, intends to seek emergency assistance from the World Heritage Fund up to an amount of US$ 300,000 over a two-year period. The implementation of the rehabilitation plan is expected to require two years, at the end of which period the state of conservation of Manas will be reviewed. Depending on the outcome of that review, the Government of India may request the Committee to consider removing Manas from the List of World Heritage in Danger.
Action Required
The Bureau may wish to review the state of conservation report and the rehabilitation plan expected to be available at the time of its meeting to suggest measures to be taken by the Centre and recommendations to the consideration of the Committee.
Conservation issues presented to the World Heritage Committee in 1997
At the time of its last session (Merida, 1996), the Committee had noted that a site visit to Manas was foreseen in January 1997.
On the basis of this site visit, jointly undertaken by the Ministry of Environment and Forests (MOEF) of India and the World Heritage Centre, between 20 and 23 January 1997, a state of conservation report was prepared and submitted for review by the Bureau at its twenty-first session in June 1997. The Bureau noted that damage to infrastructure and poaching of wildlife had peaked during 1992-93 and had severely affected staff morale. However, the Bureau was happy to note that the situation in the area had improved and that staff has established access to all parts of the Sanctuary; nevertheless, the Bureau, in accordance with the wish of the Indian Government, recommended that the Committee retain Manas in the List of World Heritage in Danger. MOEF and the State Government of Assam had elaborated a 2-3 year rehabilitation plan, at a total cost of US$ 2,135,000, of which US$ 235,000 was requested as emergency assistance from the World Heritage Fund. The Bureau approved an initial grant of US$ 75,000, for the purchase of three vehicles, two boats and 55 wireless communication sets and recommended that the Committee consider approving additional amounts of the US$ 235,000 requested by the Indian authorities subject to satisfactory use of the US$ 75,000 provided, and written documentation on counterpart Indian funds disbursed for strengthening the conservation of Manas Wildlife Sanctuary.
Analysis and Conclusion by World Heritage Centre and the Advisory Bodies in 1997
The Committee may wish to review information on progress with regard to the implementation of the emergency assistance project at the time of its session and the Bureau's recommendation concerning the approval of additional amounts of the US$ 235,000 requested by the Indian authorities as emergency assistance and retain Manas Wildlife Sanctuary in the List of World Heritage in Danger.

Decisions adopted by the Committee in 1997
21 BUR IV.A.9
Manas Wildlife Sanctuary (India)
The Bureau noted that the Ministry for Environment and Forests (MOEF) of India, hosted a World Natural Heritage Site Managers' Meeting for South Asia, from 16 to 19 January 1997. The Director of Manas Wildlife Sanctuary presented a report on the state of conservation of Manas at that meeting. A staff member of the World Heritage Centre accompanied the Deputy Inspector General for Wildlife in India on a mission to Manas Wildlife Sanctuary from 20 to 23 January 1997. The mission concluded that:
(i) Militancy of the Bodo people in the early 1990s had damaged the infrastructure for the protection of Manas and demoralized staff, resulting in poachers taking a heavy toll of wildlife populations within Manas Wildlife Santuary. (ii) Since 1993, militant activity has diminished and Manas authorities have been able to improve relationships with surrounding villagers and seek their support for conservation. Peace and order in and around Manas have been re-established and an estimated 8,000 tourists visited Manas in 1996. (iii) Damaged ranger and guard units are in urgent need of repair and/or reconstruction. The poaching threat continues to prevail as the mobility and the communications capability of Manas staff remain limited.
The Bureau was informed of a report on Manas Wildlife Sanctuary from the MOEF transmitted via the Permanent Delegation of India, which notes that "Manas deserves to continue to be in the World Heritage in Danger List", as it helps to draw international attention to the site. The MOEF has also submitted an emergency assistance request for a contribution from the Fund for US$ 235,000 to implement a three-year rehabilitation plan estimated to cost a total sum of US$ 2,135,000.
The Bureau commended the Indian authorities for the report provided and their support for organizing the mission to the site. The Bureau noted that the emergency assistance request in support of the rehabilitation of the site will be discussed under Agenda Item 6 "Requests for international assistance" and recommended that the Committee retain the site on the List of World Heritage in Danger.
