The present study has been taken to monitor Land use land imbricate (LULC) dynamics in Pathri reserve forest over the past three decades (1990, 2000 and 2010), surpassing and without de-reserving some part of this forest in view of the rehabilitation of Tehri dam evacuees. Landsat TM data has been used to generate maps on 1:50000 scale using visual interpretation. The three time period forest vector layers were used for predicting the forest imbricate for the periods 2010 and 2030 using Cellular Automata (CA) Markov model. The wringer reveals that out of 17.31km2 in 1990, only 2.62 km2 of zone was left as dumbo forest in 2010, while the remaining zone was degraded to unshut forest and scrub. About 13 km2 zone of water persons and wetlands in the study zone reduced to 3.4 km2 in two decades indicates demand for intensification of agricultural besides the pressure for fuel wood hodgepodge and uncontrolled grazing. This loss of forest over the decades can be attributed to the Rehabilitation Policy, 1998 of the Government of Uttarakhand to resettle the Tehri dam evacuees and relocation of Gujjars, a nomadic polity to an 8 km2 patch at Pathri rehabilitation site. Human interventions as well as signs of disturbance such as lopped off trees, presence of invasive species such as Ipomea spp. and Clerodendron spp. could be the causative factors. From the present LULC dynamics and projection for 2030, it is evident that the Pathri reserve forest continues to be under pressure from anthropogenic activities.
