West African lion reintroduction to India

The west African, Barbary, European, Asiatic and most of the central African lions may all belong to same subspecies that is Northern Lion (Panthera leo leo).
Instead of asking Gujarat for those lions, there may be an alternative.

It is better if Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan govt ask north-west African countries to give lion. If they can ask other subspecies of cheetah from Namibia to species and whole grasslands saving and conservation, Why can't they ask the same subspecies of the lion in Africa to protect the Subspecies and Grassland ecosystems(in which this ecosystem is almost in extinct condition in India which collapsed after Lion and cheetah vanished and wolf endangered?

People making use of them for industrialisation, agriculture and various purposes and tiger and leopard replacing that ecosystem with forest environment leading to extinction of Various grassland flora and fauna). Hence, at least any one of the grassland apex carnivores is needed to save the critically endangered grassland environment and also that particular species).
