Addressing the G20 environment and climate sustainability ministerial conference on Friday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi stated that India is among the top five countries in terms of installed renewable energy capacity. According to PM Modi, India has constantly been at the forefront of taking action on biodiversity conservation, protection, and enrichment. He discussed the international big cat alliance, which was formed to save seven large cats. "India has recently launched the international Big Cat Alliance to conserve the world's seven big cats." It is based on what we learned through Project Tiger, a ground-breaking conservation project.
As a result of Project Tiger, India now has 70% of the world's tigers. He said, "We're also working on Project Lion and Project Dolphin." PM Modi founded the International Big Cats Alliance (IBCA) in Karnataka in April with the goal of reducing poaching and illicit wildlife trading.
The IBCA, according to the Prime Minister's Office (PMO), will focus on the preservation and conservation of the world's seven principal big cats: the Tiger, Lion, Leopard, Snow Leopard, Puma, Jaguar, and Cheetah. In July 2019, Prime Minister Modi called for a Global Leaders Alliance to decisively combat poaching and illicit wildlife trade in Asia.
