Jaldapara National Park plans to rebuild historic Hollong bungalow after fire destruction

Jaldapara National Park will soon begin rebuilding the Hollong bungalow, which was destroyed by fire in June. The project will cost Rs 3.8 crore and is expected to start around Holi next year. The new bungalow will be an exact replica of the original, built with a concrete base to prevent future fire damage. The design will include wooden panels to maintain its original appearance. Half of the old structure remains, including the dining area and staff quarters. The Hollong bungalow, built in 1967, was a popular destination for tourists and wildlife enthusiasts.
