Mysuru: Installation of hanging solar fence by Forest Department to prevent wild elephant menace in the fringe villages of Saragur Forest Range in the district has been yielding good results and proving successful.
The Department has taken up the installation of stainless hanging solar fencing in a big scale in the forest areas that borders villages. As farmers and villagers residing near Nugu Dam backwaters and Chikkadevammanabetta areas were severely affected by jumbo menace, the Department decided to install hanging solar fence on a pilot basis in various parts of Saragur Forest Range.
