New Delhi: Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav has suspended two senior officials of the Bandhavgarh Tiger Reserve (BTR) over the death of ten elephants in the Bandhavgarh Tiger Reserve.
As per initial reports, Director in the Reserve, Gaurav Chaudhary and in-charge assistant conservator of forests Fateh Singh Ninama were suspended.
The investigation has begun to find out the exact reason of the death of ten elephants in Bandhavgarh Tiger Reserve.
The initial report doesn’t point to any pesticide or the role of any other side, said CM on Sunday. The autopsy report of the giant animals will come in the next two to three days.
In a devastating incident, ten elephants had died in Madhya Pradesh’s Bandhavgarh Tiger Reserve, with preliminary investigations attributing their deaths to poisoning.
