Phansidewa, 5th April: Residents of Fauji Jote in the Ghoshpukur area of Phansidewa expressed relief after a leopard was successfully trapped in cage on Sunday morning, ending nearly a month of fear and uncertainty.
Reportedly, the movement of the leopard in the area had created panic among locals, as several cattle had gone missing over the past few weeks. In response, residents had urged authorities to install a cage to capture the animal. Recently, a leopard cub was rescued from a pineapple garden. Following the incident, the Ghoshpukur Forest Department officials set up a cage inside a private tea garden owned by a local resident.
