Subject: Corrupt - malpractices adopted by the Brij Kishor Gupta, Evaluation & Monitoring
Officer with Central Zoo Authority, conflict of interest as joined as Project Director with
Reliance Foundation.

Greetings,

Kindly refer to the CZA letter No. 20-1/2019-CZA (PKR)/258/2019 dated 14-2-2019, through
which CZA granted Establishment approval with certain conditions to Green Zoological Rescue
and Rehabilitation Kingdom of Reliance Foundation., whereas concerned dealing officials of
CZA Brij Kishor Gupta, Evaluation & Monitoring Officer, resigned after issuing said approval
dated 14-2-2019, invited conflict of interest, his integrity became doubtful, because:

1. Brij Kishor Gupta, Evaluation & Monitoring Officer with Central Zoo Authority, conflict
of interest as joined as Project Director with Reliance Foundation, how he played with
the system?
2. Application under RTI, bearing No. CZAUT/R/2019/50034 and then appeal No.
CZAUT/A/2019/60004, their point 11 invited attention that Brij Kishor Gupta breached
his seniors trust, misguided with false report to safe guard the interest of Reliance
Foundation.

Hence, at the level of Brij Kishor Gupta, Evaluation & Monitoring Officer, all rules &
regulations of CZA, surrendered before Reliance Foundation, immediately invited to:

1. Suspend the Establishment approval of Green Zoological Rescue and Rehabilitation

Kingdom of Reliance Foundation as Brij Kishor Gupta, exchanged his seat from dealing
of CZA to Green Zoological Rescue and Rehabilitation Kingdom as its Project Director.
 2. Green Zoological Rescue and Rehabilitation Kingdom, functioning without permission -
approval under section 38-H of the Wildlife Protection Act, 1972, besides it purchased all
animals including elephants, playing with laws of land as criminal conspiracy.
3. Green Zoological Rescue and Rehabilitation Kingdom, explaining all truth in its
proposal, submitted but all concerned Government officials surrendered their duties &
functions, to justifying proposal, which have major objections as 140 flora species with
following species of fauna claimed
“The proposed site has following fauna in and adjoining areas recorded by their
presence and indirect presence which included animal’s faecal materials, bones, skin,
feathers, animal call, pug marks, scales etc:

A). Mammals 7 species

B). Birds 46 species

C). Reptiles 6 species

D). Amphibians 2 species

E). Butterflies 10 species

F). Dragonflies 2 species

Whereas 90 species of fauna including exotic species, in which some species as Cheetah extinct
from India, special project for reintroduction of Cheetah was approved but not concluded due to
some feasibility, keeping in view rejections, it’s not possible to accept proposal, besides it
proposed animals were already purchased, which is not acceptable, illegal as well.

It would be pertinent to mention here that Hippo, Giraffe, Kangaroo, African lion, elephant etc,
from serial No. 65 to 90, not feasible to import due to Convention on International Trade in
Endangered Species along with Red list of International Union for Conservation of Nature read
with clearance in compliance to import Quarantine health rules of the Government of India &
Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT), these provisions ignored while observations of
the Expert Group on Zoo Designing of the CZA communicated vide letter F. No. 20-1/2019-
CZA (PKR)/227/2019 dated 14-2-2019 along with CWLW of Gujarat letter No.
WLP/T.26/B/9428-30/2018-19 dated 23-1-2019; hence proposal was not feasible, needs
immediate rejection, all animals in their custody needs confiscation, legal actions as well,
whereas domesticated Yak is not possible to display for educational purpose in India,
communication with AWBI attached here with as ready references.

Subject: Circus Elephants traded with your silent consent: Greens Zoological Rescue and
Rehabilitation Kingdom at Jamnagar in Gujarat by Reliance Industries Limited.

Greetings,

Kindly refer to my application CZAUT/R/2019/50034: CZAUT/A/2019/60004, under RTI

Act but CZA replied concealed facts, even appeal decided, without supplying me
required information, now let me expose illegal Elephant trading with silent consent of
CZA, whereas I had asked to CZA to supply: Complete details about the Reliance owned
animals under the jurisdiction of Jamnagar, Gujarat along with source of procurement &
microchip numbers of elephants.
Besides it Greens Zoological Rescue and Rehabilitation Kingdom at Jamnagar in Gujarat
by Reliance Industries Limited, recognized by CZA, under section 38-H of the Wildlife
Protection Act, 1972, approving its Master Plan without annual reports.
No doubt, facilities for treatment, care & shelter, might be good but source of procuring
animals also be a legal as per guidelines of CZA, which does not allowed, unlawful
trading of animals, hence procurement of animals needs immediate scanning as per
rules & regulation, maintaining all legal provisions of Biological Diversity Act, 2002
about use of biological resources.
