July 28, 2023

The Central Zoo Authority (CZA) has given approval for setting up a world-class zoological park and a safari at Bankhandi in Kangra district.
Around 195 hectares of forestland has already been demarcated for the park project and forest clearance will not be required for it.
The proposal includes a tiger safari, besides bringing a host of other animals like various species of crocodiles.
At present, there are only three zoos at Gopalpur in Kangra, Renukaji in Sirmaur and the Kufri Nature Park in Shimla.
