For the conservation of biodiversity different projects have been conducted by India as well as different international organisations. One of them is project tiger.
Project Tiger is an Indian success story of how tigers were saved from extinction by the efforts of the government of India and various International organisation.Project Tiger was launched in 1973 and various tiger reserves were created all over the country. With the launch of project tiger in 1973, various tiger reserves were created in different part of the country on a 'core-buffer' strategy. Under this strategy, the core areas were freed from all human activities and the buffer areas were to have 'conservation oriented land use'. Initially 9- tigers reserves were established in different states during the period 1973-74. Project tiger is implemented to ensure a viable population of tiger in India for scientific, economic, aesthetic, cultural and ecological values and to preserve natural heritage for all time, areas of biological importance as a natural heritage for the benefit, education and enjoyment of the people
