Jim Corbett National Park is located in the Nainital district of Uttarakhand state. The first national park in India, it was established in 1936 during the British Raj and named Hailey National Park after William Malcolm Hailey, a governor of the United Provinces. In 1956, nearly a decade after India's independence, it was renamed Corbett National Park in honor of legendary hunter turned conservationist and author "Jim Corbett". He played a leading role in its establishment; Jim Corbett National Park is the India's first park to come under Project Tiger initiative.
