History of tadoba national park.

The history of Tadoba National Park dates back to the reign of Raja KhandkhyaBallal Shah, who formed the Chandrapur district in the 15th Century. Tadoba was then ruled by the Gond tribe mainly. The Gond kings reigned central India back then, and the Chandrapur district was their capital.

The name “Tadoba” has been derived from the name of the local tribal God “Taru”/ “Tadoba". The locals believe that the clan chief "Taru" was killed in a legendary encounter with a ferocious tiger. Because of this incident, a shrine was also built at the Tadoba Lake, regularly worshiped by local Adivasis. In addition, from December to January every year, an event and a fair where Adivasis congregate and celebrate the historical event are organized.

More interesting is the history of the 4 tiger sisters of Tadoba. As narrated by local guides, Sonam was a cub to the Tadoba Queen Madhuri and King Wagdoh. Along with Sonam were born Mona, Geeta, and Lara, and together they were the famous "Telia Sisters”. But Sonam, being the most powerful, imposed her superiority on driving away the 3 other sisters and her mother and reigned in the Tadoba Lake region. She also delivered her litter successfully, contributing to the tiger population of Tadoba. Today Tadoba is one of the 51 Tiger Reserves projects in the country

The area was legally declared a national park in 1935, keeping intact a critical bulletin, "Shooting of tigers is illegal in Tadoba National Parks and its surrounding area," ~ which was declared a few years earlier in 1905. In 1942, shooting ranges in Tadoba was announced as the game reserves with Karwa, Kalsa, Moharli, and Mul blocks, and the permits were issued in Karwa and Kalsa blocks.

Tadoba National Park History

There was a mythological tale, told in parts about a man who became the sanctity. Taru, a Gond tribal from a respected village confronted a prodigious tiger near a lake in his village. A Ferocious battle between the tiger and the man resulted in a disputed conclusionwhere some say that Taru defeated the tiger while others believe that despite his bravery, Taru was executed by the tiger. Regardless of whatever the tale is the man was considered a legend. A Shrine was also constructed in his memory along with the lake and the surrounding forested area which is known by the name ‘Tadoba’, from the man’s name ‘Taru’. The Bulletin was then passed in the year 1931 stating that the shooting of tigers is prohibited in the national park and the surrounding protected area. With a total area of 45 km surrounded by Tadoba lake, the area has been declared a sanctuary in 1935. In the year 1942, shooting ranges in Tadoba were declared as the game reserves with Karwa, Kalsa, Moharli, and Mul blocks, and the permits being issued in Karwa and Kalsa blocks.
