Destruction in reserve forest reported by locals but forest dept blame locals!
Khuturam Sunani from Nuapada district in Odisha is telling us that in Padbhera reserve forest some unknown people have destroyed forest in a huge area in last 2 months. Locals have informed the forest department but they have not taken up any action. When a section of local media is taking up the issue they are putting the blame on locals which is highly unjustified and need to be investigated. For more Khuturam Ji can be reached at 09437657625
