(BMC) in all villages. In People Biodiversity Registers (PBR), locals and technical
support organizations document native biodiversity and bio-resources. The village
resources, including its socioeconomic, historical, and cultural aspects as well as its
natural habitats, are documented by the Biodiversity Management Committee. These
habitats include lakes, springs, rare ecological habitat versatility, agro-physiological
ecological systems, and ancient distinctive hydrogeological structures made possible by
regional methods for managing surface water. The research study of Variguntham village
in Telangana, where locals have recorded the bioresources is covered in the article. As a
