A fire today broke out in the forest area near Mount Abu and the administration is trying to control it with the help of a helicopter.
The fire broke out in the morning and spread over several kilometres.
A chopper of the Indian Air Force has been deployed to put out the flames, District Collector Abhimanyu Kumar said.
A police official said the affected area is close to Mount Abu, the sole hill station in the state, where a large number of tourists arrive in the summer season.
However, tourist activities remained unaffected in the area.
