Alipurduar, Jan. 29, 2006: The West Bengal Forest Development Corporation opened the Buxa Jungle Lodge in the Buxa Tiger Reserve, which was inaugurated by the forest minister of state, Jogesh Burman., today.

This will enable visitors to stay in the jungle lodge and take their own time in making a tour of the reserve instead of completing it within a day. Since the forest departments bungalows are booked throughout the year by officials, this new accommodation will meet the inflow of tourists in the jungle. Now tourists can also book their rooms through the internet with a click of a mouse.

The forest minister said that this new lodge will address the problems of tourists who complain the lack of well furnished rooms and lodges. An abandoned building from the colonial times has been refurbished at the cost of Rs 14 lakh to prepare the new accommodation.

The minister also plans to build bungalows at Jainti and Bhutanghat, and develop infrastructure for tourism activities in the area.
