Leader of the opposition V.D. Satheesan has said that the government should give up its apathy in addressing recurring incidences of man-animal conflict in the State.
Speaking after visiting house of the deceased farmer Ajeesh at Chaligaddha in an elephant attack on Monday Mr. Satheesan said residents in hilly areas of the State were in panic after an increase in wildlife attacks. Hence, the government should leave its inactivity in addressing the issue.
The leader was here as part of the “Samaragni” march spearheaded by him and Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee president K. Sudhakaran.
