The Abohar Wildlife Sanctuary has been now declared as an
Eco-Sensitive Zone as it is one of those places which has invaluable
environmental resources and are rare in its own way. These incomparably
valuable resources require special attention from the authorities and that is
why it has now been included in the ESZ segment.
It has a number of protected species and Black Bucks are one
of them. This sanctuary has the highest number of the same. Around 100-meter
diameter of the sanctuary will be declared as Eco-Sensitive Zone. This zone is
a part of the Section 3 of the Environment (Protection) Act of 1986. With
today’s environmental disturbances it is important to preserve such rare
species and deliver special attention to the same. The conservation and
development process of will be achieved through a scientific plan, wherein
zonal master plans will be prepared and the local authorities and the
government in the same will prepare a great role. It won’t be possible to
conserve these natural resources without the participation of the local
authorities.
The specified region will then be developed sustainably and
proper care will be taken of the people living in the surrounding areas. The
development will be done keeping in mind the comfort of the people residing in
neighboring areas, without harming their daily lives. The community which
dominates this region is the Bishnoi community and it has been making huge
efforts and contributing considerably to conserve these species.
The Abohar Wildlife Sanctuary is spread over in an area of
186.5 sq. km and covers around 13 villages of the Abohar region. The number of
Black Bucks in the sanctuary move over 3, 500 in number and they even have
another rare kind of Bulls, which are the Blue Bulls. These are some of those
kinds of species, which are only heard of by most of the people or seen in
pictures but rarely seen in reality.
Once the area is developed, efforts will also be made to
develop tourism in the city, so that along with increasing the economy of the
region, it will also be a wonderful sight for people coming to nearby cities
from around the world. The basic steps taken to preserve the environment in an
ESZ segment is that no mining is done in that area and neither any new wood saw
mills are allowed. Also, no industry that pollutes water or air will be allowed
to install in that area. Even plastic bans will be banned, so that the
environment is not polluted in any possible way.
