Chhattisgarh Establishes Third Largest Tiger Reserve
Summary: Chhattisgarh has created the Guru Ghasidas-Tamor Pingla Tiger Reserve to combat the state's alarming tiger population decline. The reserve merges an existing national park and sanctuary, making it the third-largest in India. Despite some legal and environmental challenges, this initiative is expected to enhance conservation efforts, boost eco-tourism, and improve local livelihoods. The reserve’s creation follows a court order prompted by a significant drop in tiger numbers, emphasizing the urgent need for action. The National Tiger Conservation Authority will support the reserve with additional funding.
