Indian wetland management
- Ecological wetland identity differs from notification eligibility
- Overlapping protections retain their respective regulatory roles
- Connected wetlands may need management as one complex
- Wetland management extends to an external zone of influence
- State and UT wetland authorities coordinate management
- Wetland activities require site-specific ecological assessment
- Wetland plans need monitoring and adaptation
- Wetland governance must account for dependent stakeholders
- NWCP and lake conservation merged into NPCA in 2013
- NPCA supports Centre–State wetland conservation financing
