India Today
The Uttarakhand government is planning to develop 'Modi Circuit' at Corbett Tiger Reserve that will cover the places visited and activities done by Prime Minister Narendra Modi during an episode of survival reality show ‘Man vs Wild’, with Bear Grylls.
The Uttarakhand tourism department is working on a plan to develop a 'Modi Circuit' at the Jim Corbett National Park, covering the areas visited by Prime Minister Narendra Modi during a special episode of the survival reality show 'Man vs Wild' with Bear Grylls. The officials have started identifying the place for tourists to stay and visit at the places visited by PM Modi during the shooting of the show inside the park in 2019.
"The idea for a Modi Circuit popped up when I heard about the Game of Thrones tour during a visit to Croatia, covering the locations where the popular television series was shot," Uttarakhand Minister of Tourism Satpal Maharaj.
PM Modi had undertaken a slew of adventure activities while shooting for an episode of 'Man vs Wild'.During the shoot, Modi and Grylls crossed the Kosi river on a makeshift raft and walked through a tiger trail, with the prime minister holding a spear in his hand.

Satpal Maharaj had announced 'Modi Circuit' in 2020 after PM Modi shot for the 'Man vs Wild' show but no progress was made after three years.
