Lion enters the tracks fenced through the farm gate: panel

Ahmedabad: The surendranagar-pipavav railway, which passed from the beach belt dominated by Lion outside the sanctuary gear, is now discriminated and has the capacity to run the train with 80 kilometers per hour.
However, because the past boxes from the lines that have reported unintentional deaths from at least 20 big cats since 2014, forest officials have underlined that the train should not run at a speed of more than 45 kmpj.
In July 18, PM Narendra Modi inaugurated the Surendranagar – Pipavav Electrial (264 km) part with high-rise electrification overhead equipped with a cost of Rs 289.47 Crores.
Railroad officials say usually the electric train has an average speed of 80 km per hour for train goods while the passenger train is 100-110 km per hour.
However, GANPAT VASAVA, the Minister of Forest State and the Environment said, “We have communicated by train not to increase speed exceeding 45 km on the sensitive path of this wildlife.” The death of the lion on the Rajula-Pipavav railway line in the Amreli district in February has increased the debate about how lions entered the tracks that had been fenced off.
Experts who visited the area found that lions entered the fenced area of ​​the railway line through the gate made to allow access to farmers.
The train and Pipavav Port Trust have installed a high fence of 8 feet on a 17km stretch of Pipavav to Junction Barfkhana.
However, around 20 large cats including 12 lions have died on a 4 km stretch between Pipavav and Bherang.
After the lion was killed in February, the Ministry of Forestry summarized officials along with HS Singh, a member of the National Council’s permanent committee for wildlife, to visit the area and suggested steps to reduce the death of the lion on the lane.
Officials in Gandhinagar said that the team concluded that the lion did not enter the railroad area by jumping the fence but through 150 gates on a 4 km stretch which was often left open.
Officials said this gate must be covered by farmers and locked after use.
However, they are left open causing lions trapped.
HS Singh said, “The average lion weighs more than 150kg and can’t jump 8 feet.
Another reason needs to be handled.” Officials said the train produced a document that showed that the train driver had lowered the speed of 50 km per hour to zero, In about 17 seconds, but even though this animal was hit.
Officials said the average two herbivores such as neelgai or wild boar were reportedly killed every day.
The carcass then remains on the track and draw a lion for it and they are often trapped inside.
It also raised about one foot and if the lion sits on it, it becomes difficult to go down because the train is approaching.
Lion also barely moves when the train approaches.
The Ministry of Forestry has posted a man on stretching to ensure that lions are not inside the fenced lane but there are almost no supervision by them.
