The village secretariat staff, police, forest, and revenue department personnel all worked tirelessly to make the operation a success.
On this occasion, District Forest Officer B. Prabhakara Rao said, “If the CCF had not taken the initiative and brought in a special rescue team from Pune, this operation would have become extremely difficult. Our forest department team leader David and his staff worked tirelessly day and night. Heartfelt thanks to District Collector Kirti Chekuri, and the officers and staff of the police and revenue departments for their cooperation,” She said.
