Our status as a 'Tiger state' is not only intact but also going to achieve new achievements with the new Tiger Reserves," CM Yadav said. He further highlighted that the accommodation facilities for tourists in tiger reserves area stay filled across the season which shows their affection for the state and richness of the forests here in the state. "When I talk about Tiger Reserves, we would like to mention that all hotels, resorts and all kinds of stay facilities in our state are filled with tourists throughout the season. It shows tourist's love for Madhya Pradesh and the richness of our forests.

On the one hand Cheetahs are seen roaming again in Asia in our Chambal region. Additionally, work on the Dolphin Gharial project inside the Chambal river is also going on in the same region itself. On the other hand, this area is quite rich in view of vultures. Now, tigers will live in Shivpuri and I am also going to release a couple of tigers there soon," he added. (ANI)
