25:07Now PlayingPanna, a district in the central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh is known for its dynamic dry forests, its grasslands, deep gorges with waterfalls and the Ken river, which cuts through the forest and is its lifeline. Nestled in these forests is Panna Tiger Reserve, an eco-paradise and safe haven for animals, especially tigers. It is a tourist attraction, and a great place to learn about conservation efforts. But Panna Tiger Reserve also hides a secret that tourists often don’t notice — illegal diamond mining.
‘Trouble in Paradise’ is a new series that explores the dark underbelly of popular tourist destinations. In our first episode, VWN host Surabhi Tandon travels to Panna to uncover its secret and figure how conservation and mining strike an uneasy balance in a protected forest.Click here to subscribe to VICE
