About Rajaji National Park
Rajaji National Park has inherited its name from the Rajaji Sanctuary, which was one of the constituent units by the amalgamation of which the National Park was created in 1983. The Park was formed by the amalgamation of Rajaji Sanctuary, Motichur Sanctuary, and Chilla Range of Pauri Forest Division.
Rajagopalacharilovingly known as Rajaji, the first Governor General of independent India, as it was on his behest that the sanctuary was created. It is said that when Rajaji, the newly appointed Governor General, was invited for a hunt he was so impressed by the biological diversity and plethora of wild animals in the area that instead of hunting, he suggested the creation of a wildlife sanctuary in the area.
The intent notification of Rajaji National Park (henceforth also referred to as the Park) was issued on 12 August 1983. The Park extends over the Shivalik Range from the Dehradun-Saharanpur road in the north-west to the Rawasan River in the southeast, with the Ganges dividing it into two parts. Some of the basic features of the Shivalik formations are to be seen in the Park and it is rightly known as a veritable storehouse of Shivalik biodiversity and eco-systems . River Ganga bifurcates the Park into two parts: the eastern part, consisting of the Chilla and Gohri ranges, stretches from the left bank of the Ganges to Rawasan River in the east and Shyampur Range of Hardwar Forest Division to the South. The northern boundary of the eastern portion of the Parkis defined by Laxmanjhula beat of #Gohri #Range of the Park
