Under the leadership of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, Uttar Pradesh is making significant strides in promoting eco-tourism, turning its tiger reserves into popular destinations for tourists from India and abroad. This initiative not only enhances the state’s tourism appeal but also stimulates local employment and business opportunities.
The government has observed a growing influx of tourists to the tiger reserves, contributing to the local economy and increasing awareness about wildlife conservation. “As a result, the tiger reserves here are becoming a center of attraction for tourists from India and abroad. This is also promoting employment and business at the local level,” the government stated.
To manage the tourist movement and ensure the preservation of these vital habitats, the Uttar Pradesh government has decided to close the tourism sessions in Dudhwa Tiger Reserve, Pilibhit Tiger Reserve, Amangarh Tiger Reserve, and Ranipur Tiger Reserve on June 25, 2024. This seasonal closure is aimed at maintaining the ecological balance and supporting ongoing conservation efforts.
The emphasis on eco-tourism reflects the state’s commitment to sustainable development and environmental stewardship, offering visitors a chance to experience the natural beauty and biodiversity of Uttar Pradesh while supporting local communities.
