A National Park is an area dedicated to the protection of wildlife and the environment, where human activity is strictly limited.
Statutory Reference: Section 35 of the Wild Life (Protection) Act, 1972.
Purpose: The State Government declares an area a National Park by reason of its ecological, faunal, floral, geomorphological, or zoological association or importance, for the purpose of protecting, propagating, or developing wildlife therein or its environment.
Key Restrictions: Unlike Sanctuaries, no grazing of livestock is permitted inside a National Park, and no person can destroy, exploit, or remove any wildlife or habitat from a National Park except under a permit for specific management purposes.
