          As the direction of movement of the existing tiger started to turn towards the village, it became impossible for them to roam in the forested area? It seems so.

         Also, since tigers roam the countryside in search of domestic animals, it is not known exactly which villages they will visit.

            Chandrapur district is a forested district and the world famous Tadoba National Park is also located in this district.

           Due to this, Chandrapur district is known in the world as a reserve area for the protection of wild animals.

           However, in the recent times, in Bramhpuri, Nagbhid, Sindewahi, Chimur, Mul, Bhadravati, Pombhurna and Chandrapur talukas under Chandrapur district, insecurity has arisen among farmers and citizens due to large number of tigers.

           In Chandrapur district, the citizens have to risk their lives to do their daily work as there is no certainty as to where the tiger will appear and when it will attack.

           Due to this, the senior officials of the forest department have urged that the den of tigers should not be kept open anywhere to kill the citizens of Chandrapur district.

          It should be noted that the lives of human beings are as important as the lives of tigers.

         Hence it is important for forest department to be vigilant to protect human beings and it is expected to assume that it is up to Maharashtra state forest department to keep citizens safe along with domestic animals.
