Officials are sounding a general alert, as the elephant was now moving towards Sulugupalli village in the adjacent Bejjur mandal. Panic-stricken villagers have appealed to Forest department officials to ensure that that the elephant is driven away from the farms into the forest to prevent further attacks.

Teams of officials from the Forest, Police and Revenue departments have fanned out into surrounding villages which are in the path of the pachyderm moving aimlessly. Villagers were asked to remain indoors till further instructions. The publicity was carried out extensively in all adjacent habitations over the movement of the tusker.

Official teams have proccured large number of crackers in the belief that bursting crackers could scare away the wild elephant.
