GHNP comes under UNESCO world heritage site and are protected under the strict guidelines of the Wildlife Protection Act of 1972. So the only glitch now is the settlement of the grazing and herb collection rights of the locals who reside in the vicinity of the Khir Ganga National Park, which does not have any habitation.

A formal decision has been taken to make Khir Ganga a national park, but the final notification is yet to be taken. “The National Wildlife Board and the State Wildlife Board have already accorded approval for the merger of Great Himalayan National Park (754 sq km) and the Khir Ganga, so the two will now be merged,” said BS Rana, director and conservator, Great Himalayan National Park.

 

The 2 national parks will be merged the moment the Deputy Commissioner, Kullu, decided on granting compensation to the locals who enjoyed grazing and herb collections rights in Khir Ganga or gave them alternate land. The skeletal staff of the wildlife department is finding it difficult to manage the Khir Ganga National Park alone.

 

“By merging the Great Himalayan National Park (754 sq km) and the Khir Ganga (710) we will have a total area of 1,464 sq km which can be better managed with a common staff and resources,” they said.
