The rescue team that reached the spot tried to catch the panther, but after some time the panther itself turned towards the forest and went away from there. On receiving information about the incident, the forest rescue team tried to find the panther in the area around the society, but did not get any success. During this time, the people living in the society were nervous and demanded from the Forest Department to increase security.
Avani Lekhara and her security
Unique Paralympic double gold medalist Avani Lekhara and her family also live in this society. In such a situation, the panther incident not only worried other residents of the society, but also raised questions about the safety of Avni Lekhara and her family. This incident also indicates how vulnerable people living in areas adjacent to forests can be to wildlife attacks.
Demand to increase security
After this incident, the residents of the society have demanded to raise the fencing wall, so that in future, panthers and other wild animals coming from the forest can be prevented from entering the residential areas. Even before this, there have been reports of panther movement several times around the society, especially in the shooting range area. It is clear that wildlife activity is increasing in this area, and its direct impact is on the residential areas.
Society in Aravali Mountain Range
Ashiana Greenwood Society is located near the Aravalli mountain range, from where wildlife often moves towards residential areas. This area is a natural habitat for wild animals, and hence sometimes they enter populated areas in search of food and drink. However, this time the panther did not harm anyone and returned back to the forest. Nevertheless, this incident has raised many questions regarding the safety of the people of the society.
