Vinod Gupta, Donates Stoves to Village Women to Help Preserve Ranthambore National Park

A frequent visitor of National Parks and protector of tigers worldwide, Vinod (Vin) Gupta has been instrumental in the conservation of animals, particularly endangered species like the tiger. He contributes to their survival at Ranthambore by not only showing solidarity, but also by providing equipment, provisions, and vehicles in coordination with the government's "Project Tiger."

Due to the generous support of Mr. Gupta through his World Education Foundation, is now providing 500 CNG (natural gas) stoves to villagers who live near Ranthambore National Park. Countless trees are being cut down for firewood. Gupta’s reasoning behind the donation is simple; once the housewife gets used to using the stove, she will never go back to wood again and trees won’t have to be chopped down. This will help maintain the natural environment of the park and its surroundings. Gupta speaks from his own experience, “when my mom started using CNG gas, she never burnt wood again.”

Ranthambore National Park is one of the biggest and most renowned national park in Northern India. The park is located in the Sawai Madhopur district of southeastern Rajasthan. Being considered as one of the famous and former hunting grounds of the Maharajas of Jaipur, today the Ranthambore National Park terrain is major wildlife tourist attraction spot that has pulled the attention of many wildlife photographers and lovers in this destination.

The park is most famous for its tigers and is one of the best locations in India to see the majestic predators in its natural habitat. The tigers can be easily spotted even during the day time busy at their ordinary quest- hunting and taking proper care of their young ones. Ranthambore is also counted as the famous heritage site because of the pictorial ruins that dot the wildlife park.
