Sangareddy: The frequent sighting of crocodiles at Anantha Sagar lake in Kondapur mandal created panic among locals. After a crocodile was spotted crossing a road near the lake a week ago, the locals have noticed a crocodile on a mound in the middle of the lake on Tuesday. The locals urged the forest department officials to capture all the crocodiles and release them in the river Manjeera. Since the cattle venture into the lake for water and humans also move around the lake quite frequently, the villagers feared that the crocodiles may attack them. EOM
