Abstract

The Aravalli Range, stretching across Gujarat, Rajasthan, Haryana, and Delhi, is one of the world’s oldest mountain systems and an important ecological zone. In Rajasthan, it plays a key role in maintaining the climate, recharging groundwater, and supporting rich biodiversity. The region is home to more than 800 plant species, including 39 threatened medicinal plants. However, this ancient landscape faces threats from deforestation, mining, and urban expansion. To protect its fragile ecosystems, various national laws and conservation programs have been implemented over the years. These efforts aim to safeguard the unique flora and fauna of the Aravallis and ensure the region continues to provide essential ecological services for future generations. Preserving the Aravallis is vital for environmental stability.
