Q. Sariska Tiger Reserve, recently seen in the news, is located in which state?
Answer: Rajasthan
Notes: The Supreme Court's Central Empowered Committee highlighted serious wildlife harm in Rajasthan's Sariska Tiger Reserve due to unchecked tourism and traffic, recommending a ban on private vehicles. Located in the Aravali Hills, Sariska covers 800 sq km and was once a royal hunting ground. It was declared a reserve in 1955 and a national park in 1979, becoming the first to successfully relocate tigers. Sariska features diverse flora and fauna, including tigers, leopards, and dhok trees.
