Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav will inaugurate the state’s ninth tiger reserve – Madhav National Park – by releasing a tiger and tigress today. The Chief Minister will also inaugurate a 13-kilometre-long stone safety wall inside the park.
Chief Minister Dr Mohan Yadav has expressed gratitude to Prime Minister Narendra Modi for gifting Madhav National Park as the 58th Tiger Reserve of the country and the 9th Tiger Reserve of Madhya Pradesh. Chief Minister Dr. Yadav said that the formation of Tiger Reserve will promote wildlife conservation and tourism will take it
to new heights. Madhav Tiger Reserve, spread over an area of more than 37 thousand hectares, is located between Panna Tiger Reserve and Ranthambore Tiger Reserve.
It will further strengthen the tiger corridor between these two states. Madhav Tiger Reserve is also connected to Kuno National Park. With the presence of tigers in Madhav Tiger Reserve and cheetahs in Kuno National Park, tourism will increase rapidly in the entire Gwalior-Shivpuri-Sheopur and employment opportunities will be created for the local people.
