Apart from the tourist destination, this forest can be developed as a wildlife and bird sanctuary. The plan to keep extinct birds in this forest has been discussed. Along with this, it has been discussed to keep other animals including bulls, elephants, lions, langurs and monkeys in this forest.

Along with this, ponds will be built around this forest so that water can be taken from these ponds to the forest. With this, the birds and animals living in the forest can also get water to drink. The draft of this scheme will be prepared and placed before Chief Minister Manohar Lal and Forest Minister Kanwarpal.
Only after getting permission from there, they will work on the next course of action, he said, adding that talks will also be held with the central government for this scheme.
