CIRCULAR

The Government has viewed the with concern the continued dependence of its agencies as well as other private agencies and Central government Departments on wood products for constructional purposes even though several wood alternatives have introduced in the market and are in vogue in the other parts of the country. While the government intends to promote unhindered economic development , it is also seized of the necessity to maintain its substantial forest cover to ensure environment stability and to avoid the ill-effects of land degradation. It is therefore informed that henceforth all agencies mentioned above shall use wood alternatives such as ,pre-fabricated iron trusses, iron door and window frames , steel and wrought iron furniture, readymade paneling and other boards, etc, in constructional works within sikkim in place of timber . Necessary alterations may be made by the concerned department and agencies in their schedules to incorporate the stipulations of this circular.
