Environment & Ecology Current Affairs October 2012. The Union Ministry of Environment and Forests on 15 October 2012 notified fresh guidelines on tiger conservation

The Union Ministry of Environment and Forests on 15 October 2012 notified fresh guidelines on tiger conservation allowing regulated low impact tourism in the core and critical tiger habitat. Since, tourism has been happening in core and critical tiger habitats, regulated low impact tourism visitation would be allowed in such areas subject to site-specific carrying capacity.

The guidelines, however, say no new tourism infrastructure should be permitted in such core and critical tiger habitats.

Recently, the Supreme Court of India had allowed the government to notify within a week its fresh guidelines on tiger conservation and indicated that it may modify its 24July 2012 order staying all tourism activities in the reserved areas across the country.
