Divyabhanusinh,
Note on Indian Wild dogs (Cuon alpinus) in Sariska National Park
1986  Journal of the Bombay Natural History Society (83): 654-654

Sariska has traditionally been the hunting preserve of the Maharajas of the erstwhile state of Alwar in Rajasthan. To the best of my knowledge there is no authenticated record of wild dogs in the area during the Maharaja's time or later. I have been visiting these forests since 1972 and neither have I come across wild dogs on my various visits, nor have I heard reports of their occurrence during this period.
