Even if a family shifted from national park then they would be given land and will be given ownership rights too. For this the proposal will be discussed in cabinet for final approval.
Chief minister Trivendra Singh Rawat has categorically asked the forest officials to make sure proper participation in local people in forest conservation. With this they would get a chance to earn their livelihood and will make their contribution to protect forest too. Even they agreed to allow elephant safari in bugger zone of corbet and Ramnagar forest division. Now all the fund, whichever money Rajaji Tiger Reserve would earn through tourist, will be deposited in Rajaji Tiger Reserve conservation foundation.
