MP | ALIPURDUAR/ BANARHAT | 10 April 2023: A fully grown bison was shot dead. Two persons were arrested by the forest office for attempting to sell its meat. The forest officials have launched a manhunt for an absconder who is connected with this incident. The arrested persons have been identified as Santa Bahadur Rai (34years) and Sukhman Rai (65 years).
Both are residents of the Central Dooars Tea Estate in Kalchini block. The bison meat and carcass were recovered from their residence. They found a pot of bison meat inside the house and seized it.
