Rhinos : Good target for practice In Kaziranga, Assam


A very sad happening and recurring incidents. One horned Rhinos in Kaziranga sanctuary in Assam has become prone to target practice by poachers. The forest department of Assam seems to have become defunct as average one Rhinos being killed every month.
Today while traveling on NH-37 from Jorhat which passes through Kaziranga, I was quite sadden to see growing numbers of house roof of illegal settlers then trees & wilderness in the fringe area of the sanctuary. Also few roof tops are seen inside the sanctuary.
This is very alarming as most of the settlers seems to be of doubtful nationality. This can only happen with the blessing of political party keeping an eye for vote bank. I hope good sense prevail amongst different government agencies and political parties to save this world heritage site The Kaziranga.
