15 gharials released into Rapti river in memory of conservationist Ramprit Yadav

Yadav, a native of Siraha district, was among the first staff members of CNP and later served as its chief conservation officer.

In memory of late conservationist Ramprit Yadav, the Chitwan National Park (CNP) released 15 gharials into the Rapti river on Wednesday. The release was both a tribute to Yadav’s lifelong dedication to wildlife conservation and a continuation of the park’s ongoing efforts to revive the endangered species.
