In an unusual sight, two wild tuskers were spotted walking across the
Salugara market road in Siliguri on Wednesday night around 1 a.m. The
elephants emerged from the forest and wandered through the market area,
drawing a crowd of onlookers. Fortunately, the elephants did not cause any
disturbance or harm to anyone before eventually returning to the forest.

The Sarugara Forest Department was promptly alerted and dispatched a team
to the scene. According to forest department sources, elephants often
venture into residential areas in search of food or due to losing their way
in the forest. To prevent any potential incidents, the forest department
team is maintaining a vigilant watch from night to morning to monitor the
movements of the elephants.
