News India Live, Digital Desk: It is said that elephant is a very peaceful animal, but when it gets angry or when its home in the forest is not safe, then innocent humans have to pay the price by giving their lives. One such heart-wrenching news has come out from West Singhbhum district of Jharkhand, which has left the entire state inconsolable.
of a family in one fell swoop three members It is scary to even think of death.
What happened during that horrifying scene?
Last night a wild elephant suddenly entered a village adjacent to the forest area of West Singhbhum. Before the villagers could understand or take control, the elephant started wreaking havoc. The worst impact of this attack was on an unfortunate family who was sleeping in their house.
The elephant not only demolished the house but also crushed three members of the family who were trying to escape. There was an outcry in the village, but no one had the courage to step forward to help the uncontrollable animal. When the sun came up in the morning, there were only heaps of dreams scattered with debris.
Not just an accident, it’s a big wound
The extinguishing of three lamps in the same house is not just a matter of legal record or ‘compensation’. This is a huge mental shock for that village. Villagers are now afraid to sleep at night. Who knows when which ‘Gajraj’ will come out of the forest and some other family will become the next target.
After all, what is the solution?
This conflict between elephants and humans in many areas of Jharkhand (Human-Elephant Conflict) is not a new thing. But the question arises whether it is enough to scare elephants by merely lighting torches or beating drums? When will the patrolling and early warning system of the Forest Department finally be fixed? Whenever such an incident occurs, the administration applies the balm of compensation, but can that compensation bring back that mother, that father or that child who lost their loved ones?
our responsibility
It is time to think that deforestation and increasing human interference in animal corridors are the real roots of these attacks. If we snatch away their space, they will definitely come to our streets.
The entire area is shedding tears for the people who lost their lives in this accident. We hope that the administration will no longer be limited to mere talk and will take concrete steps for the safety of the villagers.
