Kraska is among 26 villages that fall under the Sariska Tiger Reserve’s critical tiger habitat in Alwar, Rajasthan. Reserve officials and conservation efforts demand an inviolate aree conducive to tiger populations and free from human presence before efforts to repopulate Sariska can go ahead. The government has offered Rs 10 lakh to every adult member in the family to relocate but most villages like Kraska have yet to move. Authorities don’t intent to provide or maintain basic amenities in these areas and residents would rather not move or wait for a better deal.
