A month after a Royal Bengal Tiger died at Chormunda village near
the Jhalialiti forest under Balangir district’s Lathor Range, a report of
movement of a tiger in villages under the range has come to the fore.
Villagers of Gainimal Sasan, Gurji Bhata Katua, Tankpaniand and
Sariabaha are in a state of fear now.
According to reports, a villager of Debriamunda, while plucking
cotton below the nearby mountain on January 18 morning, got symptoms of a tiger
coming to the area. He soon sounded an alert, and accordingly, other villagers,
who were there, fled from the spot.
Unconfirmed reports stated that a vehicle driver had also seen a
tiger in Ruaanjhar ghati.
“We are keeping a tab oh the situation and have intensified
patrolling. We have not received any concrete evidence regarding movement of a
tiger,” said a forest official.
