Junagadh: At a time when population of Asiatic lions is spreading outside of the Gir wildlife sanctuary into fringe areas leading to rise in man-animal conflict, hundreds of Maldharis (traditional inhabitants of Gir forest), who had moved out of the protected forest after taking benefit of government's resettlement scheme in 1980s have returned to the forest over the past two decades.

The state forest department has ordered a survey to find out how many Maldharis have now returned. According to data presented before CM Anandiben Patel at a high-level meeting on July 5, the forest department disclosed that there are over 450 families now living inside the sanctuary .Most of these Maldhari families who were resettled under the government scheme have returned to the Gir sanctuary.

The meeting was called to resolve issues concerning to people living and outside the Gir sanctuary. Patel has called the meeting after she visited Talala during by-polls campaigning. Local residents had complained about the difficulties they faced and also submitted a 16-point charter of demands to the CM. In a reply to demand of giving permission to Maldhari's to construct pucca houses inside Gir sanctuary, senior forest department officials revealed that about 450 Maldhari families, who had shifted out of Gir sanctuary after government provided them agricultural lands, pucca houses, loans and other facilities, were back inside the sanctuary.
