Amala has been absconding ever since she was booked for entering the Mambazhathada reserved forest area and capturing visuals of wild elephants.
The government is also planning a high-level meeting at the Forest Headquarters in Thiruvananthapuram on Wednesday.
Saseendran said the State's demand is to exclude human habitations from ECZ, and the government will protect the interests of people residing in the hilly regions.
A high level committee summoned under the chairmanship of the chief secretary had handed over file of recommendation to the chief minister's office.
Earlier an inquiry conducted by Additional Principal Chief Conservator of Forests had indicted Sajan for gross misconduct in the tree-felling case.
P K Kesavan, who succeeded Anil Kumar Bharadwaj, has been heading the department since February 2018.
The officials claim that Vava Suresh's methods for catching snakes are unscientific.
Forest department initiated an inquiry after the video showed the man holding the python by its head and wrapping it around his neck.
Officials say there is no scientific basis to the reports on the presence of precious stones.
Even as the local residents believed the tiger would have retreated to the forest its pugmarks were found in populated areas on Monday, creating panic.
