Gujarat no to tigers for lions [1]

DEEPAL TRIVEDI

The Gujarat government is unlikely to budge from its position regarding shifting of some lions from Gujarat to neighbouring Madhya Pradesh.

The Centre has offered to swap lions with tigers but the Gujarat government is not keen over this offer.

A top official of the Gujarat government dealing with the issue said, "There is no way Gujarat can part with its lions."
