This blog is a humble contribution towards increasing awareness about problems being faced wrt Tiger Conservation in India. With the Tiger fast disappearing from the radar and most of us looking the other way the day is not far when the eco system that supports and nourishes us collapses. Citizen voice is an important tool that can prevent the disaster from happening and this is an attempt at channelising the voice of concerned nature lovers.

Centre states play blame game as wilflife vanishes rapidly
A report on IBNlive yesterday details out how most of the states have failed to take effective steps for protection of tigers and reserves earmarked for them. Though states are to be blamed for the tardiness and low priority given to wildlife conservation, the centre till recently hadnt shown any particular zeal in its efforts apart from just blaming the local governments. With the Ministry of Environment and forests known to have been highly corrupt and lethargic no efforts were made by the centre to push states into granting priority to tiger conservation efforts. with a new energetic minister at teh helm things are changing but a lot needs to be done to wake the babudom out of their slumber if we want to see the tiger population surviving into the next generation.
