Madhya Pradesh, a state renowned for its rich wildlife and cultural heritage, is poised to establish the largest tiger reserve in India, located in the Damoh district. This remarkable development follows the central government’s recent decision to merge the Noradehi Sanctuary with the Durgavati Sanctuary. The new reserve will cover an impressive area of 2,300 square kilometers, with Jabera in Damoh district serving as its focal point.
Boosting Tourism and Economy
This initiative is expected to have a transformative impact on the region, particularly in terms of boosting tourism and supporting the local economy. With a current count of 16 tigers, the reserve aims to provide a safe habitat for these majestic creatures. The merger of the two sanctuaries is anticipated to attract additional tigers, enhancing the area’s significance in wildlife conservation.
MS Uikey, the Forest Divisional Officer in Damoh, highlights the potential socio-economic benefits for the district. Despite Damoh’s previous status as a less developed area in Bundelkhand, the establishment of this tiger reserve is set to propel it into national prominence and drive development in the region.
A Must-Visit for Nature Lovers
The reserve is expected to be a major attraction for both domestic and international tourists, contributing significantly to the local economy. The Forest Department is actively working on setting up the reserve and aims to open it to the public within the next two to three months.
For visitors planning to explore this new tiger reserve, it offers a unique opportunity to witness India’s rich biodiversity and contribute to conservation efforts. The reserve’s vast expanse promises an immersive experience in the heart of India’s wilderness, making it a must-visit destination for wildlife enthusiasts and nature lovers.
