It is important to note that multiple tiger sightings have been reported in the Mayudia area over the past month. Several videos and images showing the presence of tigers have been circulating widely on social media for many days. This has raised serious concerns over the apparent lack of timely action by the concerned authorities and the administration despite repeated reports and public awareness of the threat.
