Rajaji National Park
which consists of 9 ranges and is spread over 820.40 sq.km. of
Haridwar, Pauriand Dehradun districts of Uttarakhand. The initial
notification for the setting up of the Park under the Project Elephant
was issued in 1983. However the final notification could not be issued
since various hurdles had to be cleared. It may be recalled here that
the Park, which marks the northern limits of the Asiatic elephant, is
one of the safest heavens for jumbos in the country. At present, there
are about 415 elephants in the Park and the male, female ratio is
excellent.
