Commenting on the initiative, SGNP Director and Chief Conservator of Forests Sunil Limaye said, “Every year SGNP celebrates Wildlife Week from October 1 to October 7. So on the very first day, Forest Minister Patangrao Kadam inaugurated the online ticket booking system. The service can be availed of not only to book entry tickets to the park, but various others services that are on offer.”
