No resorts in Tadoba buffer, says Ramesh

NAGPUR: A day after government notified buffer zone around Tadoba-Andhari Tiger Reserve, existing resort owners and those planning to come up with such facilities were a worried lot. TOI on Thursday was flooded with calls asking what would be the fate of resorts which fall in buffer area.

When TOI raised the issue with Jairam Ramesh, minister of state for environment & forests, he offered them no consolation.

“They will have to relocate. No question. Tourism in tiger reserves, particularly in core areas will be strictly regulated,” Ramesh said.
