Environment Minister Ramalinga Reddy sought a detailed action-taken report from the Forest Department following the deaths of a tiger and an elephant in the Bandipur Tiger Reserve.

Mr. Reddy has written to the Principal Chief Conservator of Forests (PCCF) and sought a report within one week to ascertain the causes of the deaths of the two animals and investigate if there was any dereliction of duty by forest officials.

He said that the death of a tiger caught in a snare in the Maddur range and the missing tusks of a wild elephant in the Karadikallu Gudda range were serious issues.
