On this occasion, the prime minister released the Centre’s vision for tiger conservation during the Amrit Kaal. He also launched the International Big Cats Alliance (IBCA), whose objective is to provide safe habitat to the big cats around the world. It may be noted here in July 2019, PM Modi had called for an Alliance of Global Leaders to obliterate demand and curb poaching and illegal wildlife trade in Asia.
