The article do explains the cause of why women in this specific situation are more likely observed than men:

forest rangers in the national park deliberately fly drones over local women to frighten them out of the forest, and stop them collecting natural resources despite it being their legal right to do so.

later on it says:

The women living near India’s Corbett Tiger Reserve use the forest daily in ways that are central to their lives: from gathering firewood and herbs to sharing life’s difficulties through traditional songs.

For unspecified reasons, women are responsible for collecting those natural resources. If I put down a guess, that the wood is used for cooking and cleaning (with the men doing the typical gender role activities that India apply towards men).

We could create a similar article saying that men are more affected by road cameras than women, since men are more likely than women to be driving (especially truck drivers).
