Edvaya · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is Telangana. Amrabad Tiger Reserve (ATR) is a well-preserved natural reserve in Nallamala Hills (a section of the Eastern Ghats). Amrabad Tiger Reserve is one of the largest tiger reserves in India that extends about 2611.4 km 2 over the Nagarkurnool and Nalgonda districts of Telangana State . ATR is the second-largest tiger reserve in terms of core area and sixth-largest in terms of total area among the 53 tiger reserves in India. The Amrabad Tiger Reserve is a part of the Nallamala Forest track and has rich biological diversity with several endemic species of flora and fauna. Earlier it was part of Nagarjunasagar-Srisailam Tiger Reserve (NSTR) . Post-bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh and the formation of Telangana in 2014 , the northern part of the reserve became a part of Telangana state and was renamed as 'Amrabad Tiger Reserve'. The southern portion continues to be 'NSTR' and is with Andhra Pradesh. Nagarjunsagar-Srisailam Tiger Reserve (NSTR) in Andhra Pradesh is the largest tiger reserve in India.
