Abstract
In the present study resource depletion and environmental management of the Kiarda Dun have been highlighted to work out the resource management in this region which is being degraded by overgrazing, deforestation, over lopping, unscientific blasting, over mining over ploughing, Such activities have activated the natural 'geo- catastrophic processes like land sliding, mud flowing, soil creeping, gulling and slumping and are responsible for depletion of resources in the Kiardadun. Further, unplanned extension and non-coordination of various development agencies, along with a poor ecological perception has caused the evolution of various environmental problems in the Kiardadun.
