India is the country that holds a greater part of South Asia. It is a republican nation with 29 states and 6 Union Territories. India is the second-most-populous country, after China and the largest democratic country in the world. Apart from known for archaeological evidence, India is highly acclaimed for rich Intellect in the field of mathematics, astronomy, architecture, literature, music, and fine arts.

People from outside India, attracted to its breathtaking beauty, be it snowy mountains of Jammu & Kashmir or the national parks where varieties of animals or birds get witnessed by them. India is a home of around 103 National Parks and 551 Wildlife Sanctuaries.

The Wildlife Sanctuaries covers an area of 119775.80 km² that is around 3.64 % of the geographical area of the country. Sanctuary is an area protected for ecological, faunal, floral, geomorphological, natural or zoological significance. In this, no or very little human interference is allowed. The prime motto to make a Sanctuary was to protect and develop wildlife or its environment.

As we know that sanctuary is a protected area which is reserved for the conservation of only animals, few human activities like timber harvesting, collecting minor forest products and private ownership rights are permitted in it provided, they do not interfere in the life or in the wellbeing of animals.
