Rajya Sabha MP Parimal Nathwani on July 31, presented the first copy of his new book ‘Call of the Gir’ to Prime Minister Narendra Modi in a small family get-together at the PM’s residence. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has appreciated the book Call of the Gir written by Rajya Sabha Member Parimal Nathwani.
Nathwani dedicated the book to PM Modi ‘for being the visionary behind Project Lion and Lion@2047: Vision for Amrit Kaal’. The book also contains a message from the PM. During informal conversation with Nathwani, Modi enquired about the status of tourism in Gir and emphasised the need to increase the infrastructure so as to attract foreign tourists in Gir. He also said that forestation around the periphery of Gir sanctuary was the need of the hour.
‘Call of the Gir’ is Nathwani’s second such coffee-table book. It is published by the internationally known publisher QUIGNOG. Earlier in 2017, he had written ‘Gir Lions: Pride of Gujarat’, which was published by the Times Group Books (TGB). The book is based on Gir’s landscapes, which are known for the Asiatic lions. The book combines vivid photography and narratives to highlight the urgency of conservation efforts.
