Guru Ghasidas National Park is situated in
Explanation
Guru Ghasidas National Park is located in the Koriya and Surajpur districts of Chhattisgarh. It was originally part of the Sanjay National Park in undivided Madhya Pradesh; however, after the formation of Chhattisgarh in 2000, about 60% of the park's area fell within the new state and was subsequently renamed after the Satnami reformist leader, Guru Ghasidas.
In 2021, the National Tiger Conservation Authority (NTCA) approved the designation of Guru Ghasidas National Park and the adjacent Tamor Pingla Wildlife Sanctuary as a Tiger Reserve (India's 53rd Tiger Reserve). This landscape is ecologically significant as it provides a corridor for tiger movement between the Bandhavgarh Tiger Reserve in Madhya Pradesh and the Palamau Tiger Reserve in Jharkhand.
