1 thing is sure that gujarat will not give the lion to any other states coz of tourist attraction .and its good decision for the state but they should increase the area for lions...

There no proper habitat around Gir. That region of Saurashtra is completely isolated from the several other wilderness landscapes of Gujarat. 
It's in details in the Reintroduction thread. Read these two posts, #285 & #225.

After the CDV deaths, i created a poll on an FB group to fathom the popular opinion of Gujarati animal enthusiasts on lion translocation within the state. The outcome is... confusing. Because although the results may look heartwarming, apparently it isn't a subject most people there like to talk about & not many responded. A huge majority preferred to stick to posts with photos & cheesy hashtags!

I'm counting the hundreds of them under "i'd rather go ostrich on the issue".
