A forest fire is a natural disaster & poses a threat not only to the forest wealth but disturbs the biodiversity & the environment of a region. Fire are a widespread phenomenon in Indian forests. In India forest areas prone to forest fires annual range from 33% in some state to over 90% in others. Fire occur during early January to June each year with the highest fire frequency in March-April with the proliferation of forest fire in the study area it is necessary to understand the effect of fire on the diversity, regeneration. The burned forest had, in general much lower tree species than the fire free forest. This is due to recurrent fire in fire impacted area over the year. In sampled plots, in the post fire season of the 31 species, 16 species are found regeneration & 15 species with poor regeneration. Burned forests are valuable and should conserved with long term monitoring programs.
