Madhav National Park in Shivpuri, Madhya Pradesh, has been declared a new tiger reserve. Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav and Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia released a tigress to mark the announcement. A 13 km-long protective wall has also been inaugurated.
The reserve is expected to boost tiger population in the Chambal region and attract more tourists, aiding development. With its proximity to Kuno National Park, visitors can now see both tigers and leopards in one trip. The current tiger count in the park is six, with one more to be added soon.
