Wild jumbos causing havoc in Chhattisgarh villages

Bahalpur (Koria) (Chhattisgarh) , Sep. 21 : Several villagers in Chhattisgarh’s Koria district are faced with elephants’ terror in their residential areas since herds of elephants have caused havoc in their lives. These elephants have also become a major nuisance for the State authorities here.

Villagers complain, herds of elephants keep rampaging their stocks of crops and property.

At the Bahalpur Village, herds of wild elephants have caused massive losses to the local residents ever since the jumbos have fancied the standing crops of rice fields.

Also, in the process, these elephants have literally caused stampede by destroying farmers’ cottages and even pulling down well-built houses.
