The Uttarakhand High Court on Wednesday directed the CBI to investigate irregularities, including large scale illegal construction, by administrators at Jim Corbett National Park, the first national park in India. Allegedly a tiger safari project was used as cover to commit fraud.
The tiger safari project has always been suspect due to environmental concerns. The National green Tribunal, taking cognisance of The Hindu’s report, last year formed a committee to investigate the alleged irregularities.
