Uttarakhand's famous Rajaji Park, which recently got the status of a National Park, is likely to become a tiger reserve in a month, a senior forest official said on Monday.
"With a long-pending notification giving it the status of a national park already issued, we are now focusing on getting the tiger reserve status for the park," Principal Chief Conservator of Forest (wildlife) Savya Sachi Sharma said.
The proposal seeking a tiger reserve status for it has already been cleared by the Ministry of Forests and Environment and a notification in this regard is likely to be issued in a month, he said.
