Another Elephant mowed down by the speeding Poorvottar Sampark Kranti Exp in the Reserve Forest Zone of Dooars Same location where exactly 3 months ago 15941 Jhajha Dibrugarh Exp had killed 3 grown up elephants & a cub...but that incident took place near the twilight & due to low visibility the Loco Pilot could not have observed the elephants...But this time the LP of Poorvottar Sampark Kranti was in no mood to slow down @ broad day light & thus furiously hit the Elephant & dragged it down till another 200 metres before coming to a screeching halt.....Sad news for the entire North Bengal....If more such incidents keeps on happening,train services is surely going to be terminated....Members please find whether there is any conspiracy behind such incident or is it happening purely due to the conflict of human & wildlife interest....
PS:
...
more...
This region has the highest biodiversity of flora & fauna in entire network of Indian Railways...SO we should be responsible to conserve the richest BD but not @ the cost of terminating the entire Rly operation...Why isnt Rly building elevated corridor in this 167 km stretch...???

Thank you for understanding the pains of an animal..after all they also have sentiments & it's trully heart breaking for them to see tragic deaths in front of their eyes of someone who is their family member....thats why we,human should build alternate corridors & elevated routes to minimize such incidents...News Source is Anandabazar Patrika...sorry as I dont've any English/Hindi version of the news link AVL.
