Solution

The correct option is C Corbett National Park
In 1972 Government of India launched this project to save the tigers from the brink of extinction. The health of the ecosystem depends upon the well being of tiger. At present, there are 27 tiger reserves in our country covering an area of 35000 Sq km. This project helped in increasing the number of tigers from 2000 in 1973 to 3800 today. The success of the project was achieved by enforcement of strict anti-poaching measures and scientific conservation practices.
