Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma expressed happiness over the success in the conservation efforts of the Great Indian Bustard species, as a "healthy chick" has been born through artificial insemination in Jaisalmer.

"Happy and proud news! A historic achievement has been made in Jaisalmer, Rajasthan. Significant success has been achieved in the conservation of the Great Indian Bustard species which is continuously moving towards extinction, where a healthy chick has been born through the new technique of artificial insemination," Bhajanlal Sharma wrote on X.




Calling the achievement unprecedented, the Chief Minister said it would prove to be a milestone in the conservation of Great Indian Bustards.

"This remarkable success has been achieved at the artificial breeding centre in Jaisalmer under the 'Bustard Conservation and Rehabilitation Program' run with the important objective of preventing the extinction of Rajasthan's state bird Great Indian Bustard and increasing its numbers. This unprecedented achievement will be an important milestone in the direction of Great Indian Bustard conservation," said CM Sharma.

Extending wishes, the CM said, "Congratulations and best wishes to all the scientists, forest department officers and employees associated with this innovative project for their tireless and commendable efforts."

Earlier on Saturday, continuing his investor outreach in the United Kingdom for the Rising Rajasthan Global Investment Summit to be held from December 9 to 11 in Jaipur, Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma said that "every third tourist that visits India, visits Rajasthan."

At the Rising Rajasthan Tourism Meet held at the Taj Hotel in London on Saturday, Sharma addressed a gathering of tourism professionals, investors, and enthusiasts from across the UK, inviting them to the summit.

During the event, CM Sharma highlighted that Rajasthan is known for its rich cultural heritage, historic landmarks and scenic beauty.

The Chief Minister said that the tourism industry not only plays an important role in India's economy but is also essential globally. Every third tourist that visits India visits Rajasthan as any traveller feels incomplete if he doesn't visit the state. Rajasthan is not only known for its tourism but also for its historical and cultural heritage.
