JAIPUR: The Forest Department of Rajasthan acted swiftly regarding a private party at Jhalana Leopard Reserve in Jaipur. On Sunday, the department suspended the Regional Forest Officer II and Forester-in-charge, Joginder Singh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
An investigation into safari operators at the reserve has also been ordered. Those found guilty will face action under the Wildlife Act 1972.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The wildlife activists alleged that the luxury hotel, Leela Palace of Jaipur, hosted the party in connivance with some Forest Department officials last Thursday. The event featured tea, breakfast, and fruits for guests at a hunting lodge inside the reserve. A temporary kitchen was set up for this purpose, with staff attending to guests.<\/p>\n\n\n
