The collectors of Rajsamand and Pali have been instructed by the bench comprising of Justice Sandeep Mehta and Justice Vinod Kumar Bharwani to ensure the compliance of the stay order. The court order dated 18th of January Mentions “All Construction activities being undertaken within 1000 meters from the boundary of Kumbhalgarh Forest Reserve shall remain stayed”. The order also reads, “The principal secretary, department of tourism and district collector, Rajsamand and Pali shall be personally responsible for ensuring compliance of this order.”



An Advocate, Rituraj Singh has filed a Public Interest Litigation and mentions that as per the Rajasthan tourism policy of 2020, people can operate up to 20-room guest houses without converting their properties into commercial ones. Because of this policy, several hotels come within 1Km radius of the protected area. The PIL mentions that the forest department issued an order dated 31st March 2015 regarding the prohibition of commercial and industrial activities within a 1Km radius of the reserve.

Revenue authorities were also directed not to convert the lands within the 1000-meter radius of Ranthambhore, Sariska, Kumbhalgarh Wildlife Reserve, and Jawai leopard conservation reserve.


The PIL Reads, “A 20-Room guest house is purely a commercial activity, and as per the orders of the forest department it should be prohibited but since the department of tourisms does not consider them a commercial activity there are a lot of them within the prohibited radius of 1Km.”

Rituraj Singh also claimed that the National Tiger Conservation Authority published a feasibility report to declare the Todgarh Raoli and Kumbhalgarh Wildlife sanctuary as a potential tiger reserve.

The report specifically mentioned that the sanctuaries are in a form of thin stretch and it’s imperative to add more areas to declare them a tiger reserve. 

Singh also added “With more land falling in the scope of construction around the reserves, the forest department will fall short for any further broadening.”
