Reserves for effective management of elephant population.

squads and trekkers are engaged for protection of elephants.

human habitations, solar fencing, trenches and stone waling are being provided
in the depredation prone localities.
5) Studies on various issues such as man
animal conflict, carrying capacity of elephant habitat are encouraged.
6) Awareness programme among the local
villagers are taken to minimize the loss of life of the wild elephants.

Elephants, 28 Elephant Reserves have been established by the states.
8) To secure the future of the elephants
in India, the Ministry of Environment and Forests has constituted an Elephant
Task Force which has submitted its report “Gajah” to the Ministry in 2010.

of PE, a steering committee has been constituted by the Ministry.

of NBWL, a committee for strengthening of Elephant Reserves and elephant
corridors has been constituted in January, 2013.
