Wildlife Week Special- Parimal Nathwani, a boon to Asiatic lions and Gir!
<p>Lions are the finest and rarest creation of Mother nature. It is said that the lion’s footfall results in the growth of that place. In Indian history and mythology, the lion is given a special place. It symbolizes strength, courage and leadership and thus it is also said to be the Vahana(vehicle) of Goddess of power Maa Durga. In Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna has termed himself as Mrigraj, while the throne of King is called SINHANSAN, and the National Emblem of India, the Ashok Stambh is also a pillar with four Asiatic Lions. Thus, Mr Nathwani has been working for the protection of such a rare and precious species for the past 35 years.</p>
