Authorities at Tadoba Andhari Tiger Reserve (TATR) in Maharashtra have denied claims of a substantial rise in tourism fees, pointing to a modest hike implemented three months prior.

According to TATR field director Prabhu Nath Shukla, the increase was minor and contrary to recent reports suggesting a steep uptick. The current charge applies to safaris in both core and buffer zones, and the previously applied camera fee at the safari gate has since been removed.

An official added that the place's popularity hasn't dwindled, with a strong 90% booking rate for safaris over the next quarter under the updated fee structure.
