Dharna at Latashil against poaching

Dharna at Latashil against poaching
The All Assam Students Union will observe a statewide dharna on 2nd February demanding immediate steps to save the wildlife at the Kaziranga National Park. This was decided at a dharna staged at the Latashil Playground on Sunday. Led by AASU and Asom Unnati Sabha, several city based intellectuals, artists and litterateurs and prominent citizens participated in the dharna demanding immediate steps to check poaching in the sanctuaries.

The speakers at the Dharna site were vocal against forest minister Rockybul Hussain for his silent role despite killing of 312 rhinos during his term. The AASU leaders further have threaten an intensified strike if the sanctuaries are allowed to be the safe haven of poachers.

The veteran artists, sports persons, intellectuals and litterateurs strongly condemned the Assam government for the poachings that have been haunting the Kaziranga National park and other sanctuaries. They further have demanded strong actions by the government to check it immediately.
