Study Objectives
The study aims at exploring• the trends and patterns of government
expenditure (Project Tiger) based on approved APOs for tiger reserves
• whether the outcomes in terms of change in tiger numbers in the reserves are linked to the expenditure pattern

Project Tiger
Project Tiger, launched in 1973 as a centrally sponsored scheme, with 9 tiger reserves in 9 different states with around 9000 sq km of core reserve area
Increased to 48 tiger reserves spread across 18 different states with 40000 sq km of core and 70000 sq km of buffer
The size of the reserve (core area) varies from 200 (Nameri) to 2600 sq km (NSTR) ‘Core- Buffer’ PA management strategySariska ‘tragedy’ in 2004 and aftermath

Tiger Challenges
Habitat Quality and Prey: Occupancy declined in from 2006 and 2010. Though overall prey population increased, it has declined in several parks too; corridor connectivity issues
Mortality Poaching is still a threat in several reserves. Of the 43 tiger death in 2013, 23 were poached;diseases, infighting and natural death are

Tiger Challenges
Communities and Livelihood -762 villages (over 48000 families) in core, 3678 villages (223000 families) in buffer -800 to 1200 sq km of inviolate space? -Coexistence ? Management Approaches
- Tiger centric and top down - Leadership

Effectiveness Concern
2005 Tiger Task Force: institutional inertia, lack of innovative protection initiatives, inadequate compensation, outcome measure
2006 CAG Review: gap between allocation and release; non-utilization of allocated funds; poor monitoring and documentation of expenditure; inadequate protection infrastructure and staff; no definite relocation plan
Management Effectiveness Evaluations: 2006, 2011 & 2015:45 qualitative criteria covering planning, input, process and output

Methodology and Data Sources
• Trends and patterns of expenditure under ‘project tiger’ in 28 tiger reserves
• Panel regression examining the linkage between expenditure pattern and outcomes
• Expenditure data: APOs (NTCA)• Outcomes-tiger population: Tiger Census (WII)• Field visits to 3 tiger reserves (Nagarjunasagar-
Srisailam, Dudhwa and Corbett)

Expenditure: Project Tiger
Project Tiger is a centrally sponsored scheme and mostly funded by the central government with a little share of the state governments in which the tiger projects are located
Funds are allocated in five year plans and the annual allocations for each tiger reserve are made based on the demand for resources from respective tiger reserves
Three major heads of allocation i.e., non-recurring (center), recurring (state and center share equally) and eco-development (center)
Tiger reserves do to gets funds from sources other than project tiger
