The [[tiger reserve]]s of [[India]] were set up in 1973 and are governed under [[Project Tiger]], which is administered by the [[National Tiger Conservation Authority]], Government of India. Tiger reserves were designated in 50 [[protected area]]s until 2018.<ref name=Jhala2019>{{cite report |author=Jhala, Y. V. |author2=Qureshi, Q. |author3=Nayak, A.

The [[tiger reserve]]s in [[India]] were set up as a part of [[Project Tiger]] initiated in 1973 and are administered by the [[National Tiger Conservation Authority]] of [[Government of India]]. As of March 2024, there are 55 [[protected area]]s that have been designated as tiger reserves. As of 2023, there were 3,682 wild tigers in India, which is almost 75% of the world's wild tiger population.
In 2022, the 53rd tiger reserve was declared in [[Ranipur Wildlife Sanctuary]], Uttar Pradesh, and the State's third tiger reserve.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://newsonair.com/2022/10/01/uttar-pradesh-gears-up-for-its-fourth-tiger-reserve-in-chitrakoot/|title=Uttar Pradesh gears up for its fourth tiger reserve in Chitrakoot|publisher=newsonair.com |date= 2022}}</ref>

India is home to 80 percent of tigers in the world. In 2006, India estimated that there were 1,411 tigers, which more than doubled to a population 3,167 tigers in 2022.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-49148174|title=India's tiger population sees 33% increase|publisher=BBC |date=2019}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |date=2023-04-09 |title=India's tiger population tops 3,000, shows census |language=en-IN |work=The Hindu |url=https://www.thehindu.com/sci-tech/energy-and-environment/indias-tiger-population-in-2022-was-3167-reveals-latest-census-data-released-by-pm/article66716598.ece |access-date=2023-05-24 |issn=0971-751X}}</ref>

The increase in population of [[tigers in India]] played a major role in driving up global populations as well; the number of wild tigers globally rose from 3,159 in 2010 to 3,890 in 2016 according to [[World Wildlife Fund]] and Global Tiger Forum.<ref name="Global">{{Cite web|url=http://tigers.panda.org/news/what-the-new-global-tiger-number-means/ |title= 2967 – What the new global Tiger number means |publisher=WWF |date=2016}}</ref>

State forestry departments operate {{cvt|71027.1|km2}} of declared reserves "to ensure maintenance of viable populations of the [[conservation dependent]] [[Bengal tiger]] in India". The tiger is maintained for its scientific, economic, aesthetic, cultural and ecological values and to preserve areas of biological importance as a national heritage for the benefit of educational purposes."<ref name="guidelines">{{cite web |url=http://projecttiger.nic.in/COMPENDIUM%20OF%20GUIDELINES.pdf |title=Project Tiger |publisher=Government of India|location=Delhi|access-date=22 January 2016}}</ref>
As per the section 38 of the [[Wild Life (Protection) Act, 1972]], the state governments are responsible preparing a Tiger Conservation Plan which includes planning and management of notified areas and maintaining the requisite competent staff to ensure the protection of the tiger reserve and providing inputs for maintaining a viable population of tigers, co-predators and prey animals.<ref name="Reserve">{{cite report |title=Tiger reserves |publisher=National Tiger Conservation Authority |url=https://ntca.gov.in/tiger-reserves/#tiger-reserves-2| access-date=1 April 2024}}</ref><ref name="guidelines">{{cite web |url=http://projecttiger.nic.in/COMPENDIUM%20OF%20GUIDELINES.pdf |title=Project Tiger |publisher=Government of India| access-date=22 January 2016}}</ref>

By the year 2018, according to the National Tiger Conservation Authority, there were estimated only 2,967 tigers in existence in India.<ref name=Jhala>{{cite report|title=Status of the Tigers, Co-predators and Prey in India|editor1=Y.V.

As per Ministry of Environment and Forests, the tiger population in India stood at 2,226 in 2014 with an increase of 30.5% since the 2010 estimate. This exhaustive study indicated that better protected tiger source sites, especially tiger reserves, have maintained viable populations. However, the area occupied by tigers outside protected areas has decreased considerably. This demonstrates the need for [[wildlife corridor|corridors]] in order for tigers to move between source sites. The existing tiger reserves represent around one-third of India's high density forest area.<ref name=NTA>{{cite web|url=http://moef.nic.in/downloads/public-information/tiger-brochure.pdf |title=Tiger Estimate in India|work=Public Information Brochure|page=9|publisher= Ministry of Environment and Forests, GOI|place=New Delhi|date=28 March 2011|access-date=21 June 2011}}</ref> More tigers were killed in the first quarter of 2016 than in the entire previous year.

In 2010–11, the National Tiger Conservation Authority in partnership with the Wildlife Institute of India (WII) undertook an independent management effectiveness evaluation (MEE) of the 53 tiger reserves in the country. The reserves were categorized into four major categories. As of 2015, Madhya Pradesh had the largest tiger population with 526 individuals in the age group of 1.5 years, followed by Karnataka with 524 individuals, Uttarakhand with 442 individuals, Tamil Nadu with 229 individuals, Maharashtra with 190 individuals, Assam with 167individuals, Kerala with 136 individuals and Uttar Pradesh with 117 individuals.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.deccanchronicle.com/150120/nation-current-affairs/article/tiger-population-rises-2226-2014-1706-2010 |title=India's tiger population rises|publisher=Deccan Chronicle|date=15 January 2015}}</ref>

The tiger reserves in India were set up as a part of Project Tiger initiated in 1973 and are administered by the National Tiger Conservation Authority of Government of India. As of March 2024, there are 55 protected areas that have been designated as tiger reserves. As of 2023, there were 3,682 wild tigers in India, which is almost 75% of the world's wild tiger population.

Goal

As per the section 38 of the Wild Life (Protection) Act, 1972, the state governments are responsible preparing a Tiger Conservation Plan which includes planning and management of notified areas and maintaining the requisite competent staff to ensure the protection of the tiger reserve and providing inputs for maintaining a viable population of tigers, co-predators and prey animals.[1][2]

Tiger population

State wise Bengal tiger population India as of 2018

In 2006, it was estimated that there were 1,411 tigers living in the wild, the lowest ever recorded.[3] The 2010 National Tiger Assessment estimated the total population of wild tigers in India at 1,706. As per Ministry of Environment and Forests, the wild tiger population in India stood at 2,226 in 2014 with an increase of 30.5% since the 2010 estimate.[4] In 2018, according to the National Tiger Conservation Authority, there were an estimated 2,967 wild tigers in existence in India. The wild tiger population increased to 3,167 in 2022 and further to 3,682 in 2023.[5][6][7] As India is home to majority of the global wild tiger population, the increase in population of tigers in India played a major role in driving up global populations as well; the number of wild tigers globally rose from 3,159 in 2010 to 3,890 in 2016 according to World Wildlife Fund and Global Tiger Forum.[8]
