Lucknow, June 10 (SocialNews.XYZ) The Pilibhit Tiger Reserve, Dudhwa National Park and the Katraniaghat Wildlife Sanctuary will now reopen for visitors from November 15.
Principal Chief Forest Conservator (project Tiger) P. K. Sharma said that the Pilibhit Tiger Reserve, Dudhwa National Park and the Katraniaghat sanctuary usually remain open for visitors from November 15 to June 15.
However, these were closed during the corona pandemic on March 18.
"Since we have no specific guidelines about the parks and sanctuaries, we feel that there is no point reopening for a week till June 15. These parks and sanctuaries will now reopen from November 15," said the official.
