Abstract

With the implementation of the wildlife conservation policies in India, there has been a positive change towards motivation of stakeholders in checking the destruction poised by the ever-growing pressure from human and livestock population. It is very relevant that principal stakeholders should be aware of the needs, beliefs, feelings and attitudes of each other. The study intended to uncover the need patterns of rural communities living around Bandhavgarh (BNP) and Ranthambore (RNP) National Parks of India in line with Maslow's Need hierarchy model. This awareness about attitudes provides guidelines for predicting their behaviour in different situations and preparing the socially, culturally and personally acceptable eco-development plan for them. Results highlighted the moderate to low level of satisfaction of basic level needs. A stepwise motivational plan has been suggested for the better implementation and acceptability of eco-development planning among rural communities, which may motivate the people to lend their hand towards effective conservation of eco-system.
