Chamarajanagar: In a major move that could reduce roadkills, the Karnataka State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC) and Forest Department authorities have imposed speed restrictions on government and private buses passing through forest areas in Chamarajanagar district.
It may be mentioned here that National Tiger Conservation Authority, State Wildlife Board Member Sanjay Gubbi and other wildlife activists, including Santosh and Mahadevaprasad of Vanya Jagruthi Team, in an appeal to the Forest Department had requested it to drastically cut down the speed limits of the vehicles to prevent them from killing wild animals.
