Dubare tragedy: Upalokayukta takes suo motu cognisance, seeks report

The Upalokayukta is looking into the Dubare elephant camp tragedy, asking for reports on visitor safety. Two forest officials must appear in person within four weeks. The incident, which sadly killed an elephant too, has led to new rules like keeping tourists 100 feet away from elephants and banning direct feeding.
