A senior forest official confirmed that the park will open two of its four ranges, marking a substantial step towards resuming ecotourism activities, PTI reported.Given the prevailing road conditions resulting from inclement weather, park authorities have chosen to permit jeep safaris for tourists in the central Kohora and the western Bagori ranges. Tourists will have the privilege of embarking on jeep safaris to Bimoli Tiniali via Donga Tower in the western range, and from Mihimukh via Daflang Tower to Vaichamari junction in the central range. These permissions will stand until further orders, informed Arun Vignesh, Divisional Forest Officer of Eastern Assam Wildlife Division.To ensure the safety and well-being of both the tourists and the park's abundant wildlife, it has been stipulated that both the central and western ranges will remain closed every Wednesday afternoon. The decision, aimed at preserving the tranquility of the park and avoiding undue disturbance, has been communicated in an order issued on Friday.While the eagerly awaited reopening of the park is a positive sign for wildlife enthusiasts and nature lovers, it is important to note that the elephant safari, a popular attraction in the park known for its one-horned rhinoceros population, will remain suspended until further notification.
