Orang National Park geared up with anti poaching Plans

Wednesday, September 9, 2009

The alarm bells started tingling over the rise in the poaching of the highly endangered one horned Rhinos in the Orang National Park in the lower Assam region. The government in the state of Assam has thereby decided to set up five anti poaching camps consisting of squads to protect the endangered species of the one horned Rhino.

The government officials after hearing about the poaching spree in the Orang National park have tied up themselves with lots of preparation about setting up five new anti poaching camps with two floating camps patrolling in the river. Twenty home guards would be hired and deployed for this purpose. Added to it one assistant conservator of forest would be employed to supervise the activities going on in the Orang National park.

As confirmed from the government sources on 9th August 2009 a co-ordination committee would be formed in the lines of the Kaziranga National park. It would include the combined support of the locals, district administration officials and the army. A total face lift is being planned .


A meeting has been called soon by the forest minister which would comprise district administration officials and the army to evolve strategies for the upliftment of the Orang National park.
