Against the construction of Highway through Jim Corbett Park

The Issue

In March 2018, two MoUs — one between EDCUL and NBCC, and another between WII and NBCC — were signed. Both stipulate that WII will “help and facilitate. in obtaining necessary approvals” and that the three parties will “collectively work” towards that goal. India is party to the 2010 St. Petersburg Declaration on Tiger Conservation, which commits to “making critical tiger breeding habitats inviolate areas. where no economic or commercial infrastructure development or other adverse activities are permitted.”

This project will most certainly disturb the natural habitat of animals residing at the Jim Corbett. I believe we can afford to travel some extra kilometers to save one of Uttarakhand's major attraction and home of many wild animals.

Kindly, go through the link given below and support.
