Union minister of state for forest and environment Ashwini Kumar Choubey hinted about the change in name of India's first national park which is spread over an area of about 521 sq km.
'Jim Corbett was a remarkable man. There's a history behind Corbett and he deserves the honour of the area being the Jim Corbett National Park.'
With his name or without, Jim Corbett continues to live on in his home in Uttarakahand's Kaladunghi and in the jungles he loved.
