The policy

Two states, one line each.

Once the permit is issued, the booking is final — there’s no cancellation, refund, or rescheduling on it, whatever the reason. It’s worth confirming your travel plans before that point, since a permit can’t be handed back to the forest department once it’s been drawn.

Why it works this way

Jhalana runs on a government allocation, not a booking system we control.

• Each permit is tied to the ID submitted at booking and issued for a specific slot — it can’t be transferred to another person or date.
• Wild Enthusiast facilitates the booking; the permit itself is issued and regulated by the Rajasthan Forest Department.
• Once a permit is drawn against your slot, that allocation is used — there’s nothing left for us or the forest department to refund.
