Jinesh Jain owner of Jungle Resort Near KUNO informed ANI that after the news of the government’s plan to reintroduce Cheetahs to the region was disseminated, the activities of tourism have already geared up as some enthusiastic people have already started to make reservations in advance. “Earlier there is no such tourist rush but these days not only people started arriving here but also booking begins for the next 6 months so we are expecting huge tourist rush in future and tourism industry has bright future,” Jinesh Jain told ANI.
