Bandipur: The raging forest fire which destroyed thousands of acres of forest land in Bandipur Reserve Forest and surrounding forest areas including Gopalaswamy Hill forest range has been completely doused. Thanks to the Indian Air Force (IAF), which had sent two choppers to help the Forest staff in dousing the raging fire.
This morning, the forest staff began patrolling all the ranges along with volunteers to extinguishing live embers to ensure that it would not trigger fire again. As a lot of trash was found inside the forest, the process of clearing them has also begun.
