The Indian Army has again managed to prove that they are always wherever help is needed!
This time, the Indian Army helped rescue an injured elephant, Sidda of the Savandurga Reserve Forest, Bengaluru, Karnataka. The Army helped construct structures 20 feet long and 15 feet high, after working for over 30 hours to help the elephant stand.
Sidda had broken his forelimb after he was chased by local villagers. After the injury, he was seen spending a lot of time the backwaters of the Manchabele reservoir. Upon further inspection, it was found that Sidda was badly injured and was carried to the hospital on a van. The Forest department has begun to feed him and give him necessary medication to help ease the pain.
