National Parks in India

The government  declared an area as a national park with adequate ecological and natural significance. In these parks, even private ownership rights are not allowed. Their boundaries are well marked . They are usually small reserves spreading in an area of 100 sq. km. to 500 sq. km. In national parks, the emphasis is on the preservation of a single floral or fauna species. Thanks to India’s biodiversity, there is at least one national park in each state that displays the vivid flora and fauna of the region.
