In the small village of Balijhudi, located in the Barsuan forest range and Koira block in Sundargarh district, a tragic incident occurred late Tuesday night. A tusker, separated from its herd, wandered into the village and caused chaos. The peaceful night was shattered as the tusker approached a house and forcefully pulled down its mud wall.
Sadly, this resulted in the death of two individuals - a four-month pregnant woman named Sukanti Bhogta and her eight-year-old son, Shukunath Bhogta. It was a devastating blow to the village, as the two were well-loved members of the community. Sukanti's three daughters were also inside the house at the time, fortunately, they managed to escape with critical injuries.
The village was in shock as they mourned the loss of Sukanti and her son. It was a heart-wrenching scene to witness. The woman's husband, who was away in Bangalore for work, was devastated upon hearing the news. He had left his family in the care of the village while he worked to provide for them.
The tusker, which had been causing trouble for the village and forest officials for the past few months, had once again struck. It seemed as though the animal was in search of food and had come upon the house in its path. The villagers and officials were left with heavy hearts, wondering how to prevent such a tragedy from happening again.
As the village came together to support each other during this difficult time, they also reflected on the need for better protection and measures to prevent similar incidents in the future. The loss of two innocent lives was a stark reminder of the dangers that come with living in close proximity to wild animals. It was a tragedy that would not be forgotten, but the villagers hoped that it would serve as a lesson to prevent such incidents from happening again.
