This happened despite all-out efforts made by Railway and Forest departments to save ALL elephants from such incidents. We sincerely hope for the elephant to make an early recovery.

h. Construction of ramps, passes, Girder Bridge and Rail Fencing as deposit work of Forest Department, at vulnerable locations.
i. 8 ramps in Chalsa- Nagrakata section between Km 66/2 to 68/4.

i. Regular cleaning of vegetation 30 mtrs either side of the track for better visibility of elephant movement in the vicinity of track.
j. Regular counseling to the Pantry Car staff for not throwing waste food materials in BG-III section.
k. Regular announcement through PA system in the stations of BG-III (Alipurduar-New Mal-Siliguri) Section for not throwing eatables besides the track.
l. Honey Bee Sound System has been provided at 10 LC Gates in BG-III section to prevent elephants roaming near the railway track.
2. Elephants Saved: Over last 4 years, since April 16 there have been several instances of Loco Pilots sighting elephants on/crossing the track, wherein loco pilot has been able to control the speed of the train and stop the train short of elephants and thereby saving the elephants. The total nos. of elephants sighted and thus saved are 673.
We will make all-out efforts to prevent such incidences from occurring.

Regular physical medication by Forest Department wasn't enough for her relief. She died of internal injuries. 😭

The successful innovation by N.F. Railway to keep wild elephants away from crossing the railway track by playing the amplified sound of honey bees has won the 1st prize for best innovation in Indian Railways where all zones participated. The 1st prize comprise of a citation along with a cash award of Rs. 3 lakhs.
It may be mentioned here that NFR tracks passes through vast areas of forest land which are home to various wild animals including elephants. Herds of elephants often try

to cross railway track in search of food, which sometimes lead to fatal incidents leading to death of elephant as well as train derailment. From the year 2013 upto June 2019; a total of 67 elephants were knocked down in train – elephant dashing. As per available information Elephant population in Assam is about 5620. There are few thousands in Dooars area of North Bengal also. So, as a precautionary measure NFR imposed speed restrictions in various notified elephant corridors within its jurisdiction in consultation with the Forest departments of various states.
To further reduce the problem of Elephant dashing with train, a trial using certain frequency of sound to distract the elephants and to move them away from the railway track was thought about. Accordingly, Rangiya Division took the lead and an equipment was designed to generate amplified sound of Honey Bee audible from a distance of about 700-800 mts. The then Divisional Railway Manager, Shri Ravilesh Kumar took the lead to form a team comprising Shri Santosh Kr. Sharma, Addl. Divisional Railway Manager, Sr. Divisional Engineer/III Shri Sitesh Das, Sr. Divisional Safety Officer Shri Suresh Prasad, Shri Avdesh Verma, Divisional Engineer/Rangiya, Shri R.K. Dhaka, Divisional Engineer/Rangiya and Shri Pinku, Asst. Divisional Engineer/Rangiya who carried out the first testing in Rangapara and the second testing in Phulbari Tea Estate under Rangiya Division, where it was found that the elephant starting moving away once the Honey Bee sound was generated. Following the successful trial, first instrument was installed at level crossing gate NN-274 between Azara and Kamakhya station under Rangiya Division. Gradually the instrument has been installed in many level crossing gates in the zone located in the vicinity of forest areas. Presently 46 such equipment have been installed all over NFR.
The above initiative, trial of which started from the end of year 2017 alongwith implementation of various other measures like fixing of Signage Boards at all identified elephant corridors to pre-warn driver, clearance of vegetation on both sides of railway track to improve visibility of drivers etc was successful in saving lives of many elephants. As per available record, 1014 elephants were saved upto June 2019 from the year 2014. Of these 434 were saved in the year 2018 alone.
