00:00My name is Masoor. I am present in Chambal.
00:05But now the story has changed.
00:07And this Chambal has now become a habitat for endangered animals.
00:14Behind me you can see the crocodiles and crocodiles.
00:18This Chambal has become a sanctuary for them.
00:22And it has become their habitat.
00:24Endangered animals like crocodiles, crocodiles, dolphins and all other wild animals.
00:29All of them are getting a sanctuary here.
00:33And their numbers are also increasing.
00:36The most important thing about Chambal is that there is no industrial pollution.
00:41The water there counts in snake water.
00:45And there are many birds that migrate in snake water that reach Chambal.
00:53The most important bird among them is the Indian streamer.
00:59And the Indian streamer is included in the endangered species list of the IUCN.
01:05So, in a way, there is a problem.
01:08It not only comes there, but also breeds there.
01:13So, in a way, we can say that the Chambal river is only for the crocodiles.
01:21It is not only for them.
01:23The other endangered species like the Indian streamer,
01:27and many other species that are near threatened also come there for breeding.
01:33But the most important thing is that the Indian streamer breeds in Chambal, not in Agra.
01:39It feels very good.
01:41What happened? How did you come here?
01:43We came from Agra, not from Delhi.
01:46We came here to see the crocodiles and monkeys.
01:49It feels very good here.
01:51Did you show them to the children?
01:52Yes.
01:53It feels very good.
01:55We have seen many big ones.
01:58Have you ever seen them before?
02:01No.
02:02So, how did you feel when you came here?
02:03It felt very good.
02:05We went to Chambal and saw many crocodiles there.
02:11And they were very big.
02:13We will tell you.
02:16Sir, it feels very good.
02:18And in the context of eco-tourism, the government should work on this area,
02:23especially the Chambal area where the crocodiles are seen.
02:27It will be a very beautiful and fun place.
02:30And this new tourist spot, which is mostly untouched,
02:34from the city, from Agra, from Taj Mahal,
02:37it can also be developed.
02:39It should be worked on.
02:41It should be worked on, sir.
02:43Here in the Chambal area, the structure of the crocodiles and crocodiles,
02:47if you look at it, it has become an ancient species.
02:50Chambal is such an area where the crocodiles and crocodiles are protected.
02:54Many tourists come here.
02:56There is no arrangement for them to come.
02:58The government should pay attention to this,
03:00so that the environment here is good and the tourists get a boost.
03:03It is expected from the government that if an arrangement is made,
03:07then the tourists should be focused here.
03:09So that people come here and see.
03:11Until now, Chambal was known as Dhaka.
03:13But even today, as you can see,
03:15as we can see and those who live here,
03:17it has become a safe haven for crocodiles and crocodiles.
03:21There is no tourist environment here,
03:23as people have made it famous.
03:25If we talk about tourism here,
03:27then the chances of employment will increase.
03:29The chances of employment will increase.
03:31Tourist areas, tourists will come here.
03:33They have arrangements to eat here.
03:35A hotel will be built for them.
03:37Some government laws will also be implemented here,
03:40which will also make arrangements for them to come and go.
03:43So, Parwan will also get some profit.
03:45The government will also benefit.
03:47And the people who come here,
03:49the people in the locality,
03:51they will be given employment opportunities.
03:53Those who come here for work for 300-400 kilometers,
03:56they can earn their daily wage by staying at home.
03:59They don't have to go out of the house.
04:01It will be done.
04:03The government should pay attention to this.
04:05And it can be very good here.
04:08Once the previous governments did something here,
04:12in the name of the World Festival,
04:14it should be encouraged by the governments,
04:16so that the government contributes to the development here.
04:20In the name of festivals,
04:22like the Chambal Safari,
04:24the line safari that people did,
04:26the way it has been developed there,
04:28they should also pay attention to it.
04:30It is very necessary.
04:32And the facilities that will increase in the locality,
04:34like they have to join Madhya Pradesh now,
04:36which is being done by the bridge,
04:38they are doing a lot of work on this development.
04:40And this will make both Madhya Pradesh and UP one.
04:43So they should pay more attention to this.
04:45And it is very necessary to develop this
04:47instead of the line safari.
04:50You will get a lot of employment
04:52if it becomes a permanent bridge.
04:54People will come here for sightseeing.
04:56They will come to see the crocodiles.
04:58The people will get something to sleep.
05:00They will get employment.
05:02You don't have to go out to work.
05:04You don't have to go out to work.
05:06Where do you go?
05:08People go to Delhi.
05:10They go to Gujarat also.
05:12They go wherever they can.
05:14If this work gets done here,
05:16people will come here for sightseeing.
05:18The whole public will get it.
05:20It will be a very good job.
05:22The government should work.
05:24Yes, the government should work.
05:26It is very necessary.
05:28The endangered animals,
05:30like the crocodiles,
05:32dolphins,
05:34the government should work on this.
05:36Integrated Development of Wildlife Habitat.
05:38We are working on this.
05:40In March and April,
05:42when it is time for them to be released,
05:44our staff protects their eggs.
05:46Continuous monitoring is done.
05:48We collaborate with NGOs
05:50for their rescue, rehabilitation,
05:52hatchlings,
05:54etc.
05:56Our staff protects them.
05:58When the hatchlings hatch,
06:00we release them in the river.
06:02This is how they are protected.
06:04In the recent count,
06:06the numbers of crocodiles,
06:08dolphins,
06:10and all other animals
06:12have increased.
06:14At regular intervals,
06:16we organize events.
06:18For example,
06:20events related to human-animal struggle.
06:22Events related to awareness.
06:24We have regular health camps.
06:26We organize these events.
06:28We inform people about these events.
06:30We have a communication
06:32between the wildlife department
06:34and the public.
06:36This way,
06:38whenever there is a situation,
06:40we can take their support
06:42and support them.
06:44Whenever there is a flood,
06:46we inform them
06:48that if you see any animal,
06:50please inform the wildlife department.
06:52If you see a crocodile,
06:54please inform the wildlife department.
06:56Then our team reaches there
06:58and rescues them.
07:00We release them in their natural habitat.

07:06a new tourist spot in Agra?
