  • Sacred grooves are places of worship where their exploitation or destruction is not allowed by worshipers. eg: Kumaon areas, Khasi hills (Meghalaya), Aravalli hills (Rajasthan), Western ghats (Kerala, Karnataka).
  • They are the last refuges for a large number of rare and threatened plants and species only because of its freedom from exploitation.
