Blackbuck haven beckons nature, wildlife enthusiasts
The Hindu
‘Plan to make it a tourism centre given the rarity of sighting’
It is summer time and all roads for the wildlife and nature-loving enthusiasts lead to the sleepy township of Nandipet village in Nizamabad as the herds of graceful blackbucks make their appearance again in the backwaters of Sriramsagar Project. And, not surprisingly, Sunil S. Hiremath, Nizamabad District Forest Officer, is keen to barricade the entire locale with a single entry and exit point to avoid any sort of disturbance to the blackbucks due to vehicular movement. “We will involve the local villagers to ensure that the place remains clean devoid of any waste being dumped and we have definite plans of making it a big tourism centre given the rarity of the sighting of blackbucks in Telangana,” he said.More Related News
