MP: Only 36 Tourists Visit Kuno National Park On First Day; CM Mohan Yadav Fetes Teachers

Only 36 Tourists Visit Kuno National Park On First Day

Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): On its first re-opening day on Sunday, the footfall of tourists to Kuno National Park remained dismal. Only 36 people visited Kuno to enjoy its scenic beauty and wild animals without cheetah as they remains inside enclosures.

There are three entry gates in Kuno and only 36 tourists entered from Tiktoli gate. There were no entries from Ahera Gate and Pipalwadi Gate. Kuno officials were excited on the opening day of the park. They made preparations to welcome the tourists. They decorated the entry gate and wrote, Welcome, near entry gate.

However, the low turnout has disappointed Kuno administration. But somewhere they were prepared for it as Kuno does not have an impressive record of tourists even after the arrival of cheetahs. The reason is that cheetahs remained inside the enclosure for maximum period of time since their arrival and have been not been available for public view.

Worse, Kuno reopened late compared to other national parks as rivers flowing through its limits were in spate due to heavy rains.
