On the lookout

On the lookout
Forest officials on duty on the NH-37 to enforce a 40 km/hr speed limit for vehicles that run through the Kaziranga National Park, on August 1, 2009. Animals in the park, such as rhinos and deer, have fallen prey both to poachers on the prowl while seeking high ground during floods, as well as careless drivers who zip through the park at high speed. Security has been beefed up inside the 430 sq km protected area which is home to the world's largest concentration of the one-horned rhinoceros.

Notice
The Northeast Vigil website ran from 1999 to 2009. It is not operated or maintained anymore. It has been put up here solely for archival sentiments.

Parts of the old website, especially the extremely popular dams issue, have been resurrected. Other archived material will be uploaded here as and when I am able to salvage those. If at all.
