Approximately 200 white tigers remain in the world today. India is home to half of them. Madhya Pradesh’s Rewa is known as the “Land of White Tiger.” This is because Mohan, the first white tiger in history, was discovered here. The same Mohan who was discovered in Rewa is the ancestor of all White Tigers, wherever and wherever they are found today. Let’s share Mohan’s tale with you today.

We have taken you to Mohan Tiger Safari, which is situated in Madhya Pradesh’s Vindhya region. In 1951, the White Tiger Mohan, the subject of this safari, was discovered in these forests near Rewa, which was then part of Baghelkhand.

He was the first white tiger in history. Actually, on May 25, 1951, the then-Maraja Martand Singh set up a hunting camp at the Dubri Game Sanctuary for his guest, King Ajit Singh of Jodhpur. The hunt for tigers began. Scouts claimed that a tigress and her three cubs, one of them was white, were wandering about the nearby forest area in the evening. Royal hunters’ firearms killed the tigress and her two cubs, but the white tiger cub lived.

Two to three days after the hunt, the hunt for the white cub began. The white cub was trapped in a cage after hearing the sound of the scouting team in these trees and entering a rock cave on the riverbank.

This area’s Mukundpur White Tiger Safari bears Maharaj Martand Singh’s name as well. To witness the White Tiger, people go from all across the nation to Rewa. Every year, between 3.5 and 4 lakh tourists visit this place. Rewa’s airport is now opened as well. It is anticipated that more Indian and foreign tourists will visit Rewa in the days ahead as a result of its aviation connection.

There was a wave of grief in Govindgarh of Rewa following Mohan’s death. In Rewa, state mourning was proclaimed. The royal banner of Bandhavgaddi was draped over his mortal bones. Condolence meetings were conducted at several locations, and Vedic chanting was used during his final rites.
