Dr. M.K. Ranjitsinh

India’s leading wild life conservationist, Dr. M. K. Ranjitsinh was born on 19 February 1938.

He belongs to the royal family of Wankaner in Saurashtra, Gujarat. Educated at St. Stephen’s

College in Delhi, he was selected for the Indian Administrative Service in 1961. As collector

of Mandla (1967-1970) in Madhya Pradesh, he helped save the central Indian Barasingha from

extinction. Transferred to Delhi in 1971 as deputy secretary of forests and wildlife in the

Ministry of Food and Agriculture he was the prime architect of the Wildlife (Protection) Act,

1972 (subsequently associated with every significant amendment of it thereafter, even after

retirement from government service in 1996). He was the first Director of Wildlife Preservation

of India, 1973-75, and served for a second term, 1985-89.

Dr. Ranjitsinh served as Regional Adviser in Nature Conservation (Asian Countries) for

United Nations Environmental Programme at Bangkok, Thailand, 1975-1980. Back in India in

January 1981, he was appointed Secretary, Forests and Tourism, and Commissioner, Bhopal

Division, Madhya Pradesh. During his 4 year tenure, he established 14 new sanctuaries, 8 new

national parks and more than doubled the area of 3 existing national parks, a total addition of

over 9,000 sq. km. to the protected areas of the nation. As Commissioner of Bhopal in 1983,

played a pivotal role in the aftermath of Bhopal gas tragedy. Mid 1985, he was moved to Delhi

as joint secretary in the newly created Ministry of Environment and Forests and put in overall

charge of Project Tiger. He was also Chairman of Standing Committee, CITES, 1985-86. Dr.

Ranjitsinh was appointed India’s commissioner on the International Whaling Commission and

attended its annual Conference of Parties at Bournemouth, England, 1985; Malmo, Sweden,

1987; Auckland, New Zealand, 1988; and San Diego, USA, 1989. He was Chairperson of the

Research Advisory Committee of Wildlife Institute of India at Dehradun for many years. He

became Additional Secretary and Project Director of the Ganga Action Plan, under the aegis

of the Ministry of Environment and Forests, 1989-90. He was Chairman, Narmada Valley

Development Authority, 1993-95, and Director General, Council for Advancement of People’s

Action and Rural Technology (CAPART), 1995-96. Dr. M.K. Ranjitsinh retired from

government service in February 1996.

His passion for saving endangered species continues after his retirement, whether in planning

the relocation of the Asiatic lion from Gir forest, the reintroduction of the Cheetah into the

grasslands of central India, or in saving from extinction the Kashmiri stag, the Manipur brow-

antlered deer and the great Indian bustard. The eastern subspecies of the Indian Barasingha is

named after him (cervus duvauceli ranjitsinhji).

In 1997, he headed a special unit for tiger conservation in India under the aegis of WWF

International, based in WWF office in Delhi. He has been associated with the major

conservation initiatives as a member of the National Board for Wildlife and its Standing

Committee; Chairman, Biodiversity Conservation, Madhya Pradesh, 1998; member, National

Forest Commission, 2003; Chairman, Wildlife Trust of India, 2008-09, and special task force

for reintroduction of Cheetah in India.

Dr. M.K. Ranjitsinh has published numerous articles and two books on Indian wildlife and

conservation, The Indian Blackbuck; Beyond the Tiger: Portraits of Asian Wildlife and a book

on his life’s journey which in essence is the history of nature conservation in India, A Life with

Wildlife: From Princely India to the Present. The list of his various articles and essays on

wildlife form part of the catalogue.

Dr. Ranjitsinh was awarded the Order of the Golden Ark in 1979, in recognition of ‘outstanding

work on behalf of International conservation both in India and in South East Asia’ and was

elected to the Global 500 Roll of Honour of the United Nations Environment Programme

(UNEP) ‘in recognition of outstanding practical achievements in the protection and

improvement of the environment’ in 1991; was recipient of Maharaja Martand Singh Dev Trust

Award (1996) and Maharani Udai Singh of Mewar Award (1998) for his contribution to
