Sir,
Subject: The harmful effects of tourism on Corbett National Park
Through the columns of your esteemed daily, I would like to draw the attention of the
concerned authority to the rampant abuse of available facilities in the Corbett National Park by
tourists and the consequent endangerment to the environment.
The tourists not only litter the place with non-biodegradable plastic packets and wrappers, but
also use wood from the forests for cooking purposes. Excessive trampling of the soil has been
reported to have a harmful effect on the natural ecosystem. The tranquillity of the habitat, which
is so crucial to the resident fauna, is habitually disturbed by tourists playing loud music in their
safari jeeps and during their camps.
The Corbett National Park is the oldest in the country, established in 1936, to protect the
endangered Bengal tiger. The public should be made aware of the fact that eco-tourism should
not be facilitated at the cost of harming the environment. It is my request that this issue be
immediately taken up by your esteemed publication to generate further awareness.
Yours sincerely,
Navita
Secretary
