Country’s first Leopard Safari project—Jhalana Leopard Project—was duly inaugurated by Forest Minister Gajendra Singh Khimsar on Thursday. The newly-built interpretation centre, tourist refreshment hut and tourist waiting room were started.
Speaking on the occasion, Khimsar said that on the lines of Jhalana Leopard Safari Project, leopard safaris will be set up in seven different districts of the state where the population of Leopards is abound. This will not only enhance the conservation of wildlife, but will also provide a boost to tourism in Rajasthan.
For now, Kumbhalgarh, Jaisamand, Shergarh, Mount Abu, Khetri, Jawai Dam Conservation Reserve and Bassi Sitamata Wildlife Sanctuary have been marked for the same.
