Hey there, nature lovers! The Pune Forest Department is making some exciting moves to promote eco-tourism at the Rehekuri Blackbuck Sanctuary. They’ve got a new project in the works aimed at improving infrastructure and sustainable development within the sanctuary.
The project will focus on three key sites within the sanctuary—Deulgaon, Bitkewadi, and Handewadi. These spots are already popular among tourists and devotees, but they’re in need of some upgrades to really shine. The plan is to enhance the visitor experience while keeping a keen eye on environmental conservation.
Deputy Conservator of Forests (Wildlife) Tushar Chavan is all in on this project, emphasizing the importance of these sacred pilgrimage spots to the local shepherd community. The goal is to introduce essential infrastructure improvements like solar lamps, water dispenser facilities, benches, and fencing to protect wildlife and manage visitor movement.
Each village within the sanctuary will receive ₹1 crore for these developments, ensuring that the project benefits both tourists and the local community. The focus is on creating an eco-friendly environment that promotes sustainable tourism and supports livelihoods.
Eco-tourism is all about responsible travel, and the Pune Forest Department has had success with similar projects in Bhimashankar and Baramati. This new venture at Rehekuri Blackbuck Sanctuary is expected to boost the local economy, create jobs, and further conservation efforts.
So, keep an eye out for the approval of this exciting project within the coming month. With infrastructure upgrades and a focus on environmental protection, the sanctuary is set to become a model for sustainable tourism. Get ready to experience nature like never before at Rehekuri Blackbuck Sanctuary!
