Tiger Reserves in India

[Ashutosh]

Kaziranga has a national highway running along the southern side and this has been a source of constant conflict for wildlife. Now, the Assamese govt wants to build a flyover bypassing the whole park.

“The alignment of the flyover was prepared recently by the Wildlife Institute of India. The first segment of the flyover, divided into three segments, will be the lengthiest at 18km,” P Sivakumar, the director of Kaziranga National Park, informed.
While the existing highway will continue to be used for access to the park and various resorts near it, the flyover will be for those who don’t want to halt at Kaziranga.
The minister informed that the project is being planned in coordination with the National Green Tribunal, various other wildlife authorities and the Assam government.
