A lone male elephant, separated from its herd, has caused significant
damages in Bagodar area in Giridih district since last three days. The
tusker not only damaged houses but also consumed grains stored in homes and
shops.
According to locals, after wreaking havoc in villages, the elephant entered
the urban area of Bagodar on Tuesday night. It rampaged through old GT Road
of Bagodar Neeche Bazar. The elephant also consumed grains from a few shops.
A forest department official said, “We are keeping an eye on the movement
of the elephant and efforts are on to chase it away by sounding sirens and
bursting crackers. The elephant had caused destruction in Banpura, Khetko,
and Dhawaiya of Bagodar previously. Currently, the animal is believed to be
in Ghaghra forest.”
