RAS question

Where was Rajasthan's second Lion Safari inaugurated in February 2026?

Correct answer: (A) Sajjangarh Biological Park, Udaipur.

Rajasthan's second Lion Safari was inaugurated at Sajjangarh Biological Park, Udaipur, in February 2026.

  1. (A) Sajjangarh Biological Park, Udaipur
  2. (B) Ranthambore National Park, Sawai Madhopur
  3. (C) Nahargarh Biological Park, Jaipur
  4. (D) Kumbhalgarh Wildlife Sanctuary, Rajsamand

Explanation

Rajasthan's second Lion Safari was inaugurated at Sajjangarh Biological Park, Udaipur, on 16 February 2026. The site matters because the event was not a generic wildlife update: it added a dedicated lion-safari attraction to Udaipur's Sajjangarh Biological Park, with the Asiatic lion pair Samrat and Sunaina brought from Gujarat. The cited report says the safari opened at Sajjangarh Biological Park on that date and identifies Samrat and his companion in the safari enclosure. The same inauguration also covered a Reptile House within the park premises, matching the explanation's note that Rajasthan's first Reptile House was opened there. Hence the location to remember is Sajjangarh Biological Park, Udaipur.

Why the other options are wrong

  • (B) Ranthambore National Park is the Sawai Madhopur option, but the February 2026 lion-safari inauguration is placed at Sajjangarh Biological Park, Udaipur.
  • (C) Nahargarh Biological Park may look plausible because it is also a biological park, but the cited event is specifically tied to Sajjangarh Biological Park in Udaipur.
  • (D) Kumbhalgarh Wildlife Sanctuary is the Rajsamand option, while neither the supplied explanation nor the verified source places this lion safari there.

Concept

This tests Rajasthan current affairs through a place-in-news wildlife-tourism fact. RAS often repeats such items because they combine location, date, facility and state-level significance in one compact question.
