The Ratapani sanctuary, spread over 689 sq kms in Raisen and Sehore districts, was set up in 1976. After in-principle approval from NTCA, the state chief wildlife warden had in February 2012 sent a proposal to the state government with regard to the creation of Ratapani tiger reserve and to get its critical tiger habitat/core area notified, but that is yet to happen. The recent incidents of tigers hunting near such areas also put a question mark on the fate of the proposal to convert the wildlife sanctuary into a safe tiger reserve.
