Under Section 35(7) of the Wild Life (Protection) Act, 1972, grazing of livestock in a National Park:

Section 35(7) states: "No grazing of any livestock shall be permitted in a National Park", and livestock may enter only "where such livestock is used as a vehicle by a person authorised to enter" it. Unlike a sanctuary, where Section 33 lets the Chief Wild Life Warden regulate grazing, a National Park allows no grazing at all, even by holders of recorded rights.
