The Tamil Nadu government will organise the ‘TN Global Tiger Summit’, in partnership with the Government of India, in Chennai in October this year, Chief Minister M.K. Stalin said on Friday.
In a social media post, he said the summit would be a fitting tribute to the State’s pioneering efforts at tiger conservation. Tamil Nadu is home to nearly 10% of India’s tiger population, with 264 tigers, he said, quoting the National Tiger Conservation Authority.
