Twenty tourists were left stranded inside the Ranthambore National Park on Saturday (August 16, 2025) evening after their safari vehicle (canter) broke down mid-route and the accompanying guide left them to fetch another vehicle, officials said.

The matter came to light after purported videos of the incident surfaced, prompting the park administration to take action. Three canter drivers and the guide have been barred from entering the park till the probe is completed, Deputy Conservator of Forests (DCF) Pramod Dhakad told PTI on Sunday.
