Now you can add a tour (when it is ready) of the dinosaur fossil geo-park, which the government is planning when visiting the popular destinations of the Narmada River valley, located in the central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh. Fossil dinosaur eggs are being discovered in the valley, and the latest addition, in the Dhar district of the valley, is the clutch of 92 nesting sites containing a total of 256 fossilised eggs. These belong to titanosaurs, a group of giant, herbivorous dinosaurs. The eggs are in the Lameta Formation, a geological formation located in the valley, considered one of the largest river valleys in India. The valley and Lameta Formation cover several states, including Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, and Maharashtra.
