The successive governments of Uttarakhand have been making tall claims of reverse migration and improving the health services in the Himalayan state with claims of opening thousands of job avenues.

Though the forest and wild life department has now come on a proactive mode after several casualties by killing maneaters and tranquillizing them but the situation now seems to have gone out of control with the interior villages precincts and vicinity having become their easy playgrounds where maneaters and wild bears aur roaming freely for human flesh clandestinely taking refuge behind the large shrubs that have massively grown up near the villages in the barren fields from where these maneaters keep eye on human prey.
