In order to prevent further encroachments in the Yeoor zone of Sanjay Gandhi National Park (SGNP), the forest department has intensified their action against the illegal structures in the area. Authorities have started digging trenches so that people don’t enter the forest or construct new structures, but the locals and some politicians are creating obstacles in the work.

In the last few days, SGNP authorities have started taking action against the illegal structures in the Yeoor range of the park at Kokanipada and adjoining areas by making trenches.
