A 7-km long community-managed single-strand solar-powered fence that has been installed by Aaranyak in association with Forest Department will protect life, property and livelihood of about 170 families besides around 500 bighas of cropland in human-elephant conflict (HEC) affected No.3 Kundarbil village in Udalguri district of Assam.

The solar-powered electric fence, a proven tool for mitigation of HEC, was formally handed over to the community during an inauguration ceremony held on December 28 last. This solar fence installation was funded by SBI Foundation under a project on mitigating human elephant conflict in the region.

The Village Council Development Committee (VCDC)  chairman of Kundarbil, Patrosh Daimary inaugurated the fence in presence of around 100 people at Rupa L.P. School, No.3 Kundarbil ground. He expressed his gratitude to Aaranyak and Forest Department for providing support for mitigating HEC and safeguarding people’s well-being.
