BAGAHA: Valmiki Tiger Reserve (VTR) will be closed on every Tuesday for maintenance works. Amenities like jungle safari, pathway, Kauleshwar Jhula and Eco Park will remain closed on Tuesdays.

However, visit to temples, including Jatashankar, Nardevi, Madanpur Devi Sthan wouldn't be affected on any day.

VTR director-cum-conservator of wildlife, Nesamani K, said the decision has been circulated to all government departments and offices.

The director further said steps are also being taken to prevent forest fires as the peak summer season has approached. The high temperature, along with westerly winds, leads to fire in the forest area here. "The forest officials and staff have been instructed to remain vigilant to prevent forest fire," Nesamani said.
