Corbett park to sign agreement with Centre and NTCA

After Rajasthan, Kerala, Assam & TN, Uttarakhand might be th next state to sign a tripartite agreement with NTCA and centre paving the way for direct flowof funds to Corbett National Park for convervation and protection initiatives. With states and sanctuaries one by one realising the need for signing the agreement, the centre should push reluctant states like MP to get on board quickly. As has been evident from cases like Panna and Sanjay national park in MP, tiger populations are rapidly declining and professional protection methods are the need of the hour which is possible only with more access to funds and an accountable system.
