Our team swung into action and douse flames soon after we receive such information from Forest Survey of India, says Deputy Director Kumar Ashish

Medininagar: The Palamu Tiger Reserve (PTR) of Jharkhand has witnessed small or big forest fire incidents around 1,600 times this year, a senior official said.

However, there is no report of any damage to wild animals due to the fire incidents.

Dehradun-based Forest Survey of India (FSI) which gets to know about these through real-time satellite observation, have alerted the authorities many a time, PTR Deputy Director Kumar Ashish said.

"Our fire-fighting team swung into action and douse the flames soon after we receive such information from the FSI," he said.

Fires had broken out at least 600 times in the northern part of the PTR and 1000 times in the southern part.

"We are facing challenges to address sudden forest fire incidents in the absence of adequate manpower," he said.

Out of four forest ranges under PTR, only Kutku in Garhwa district has a range officer while such posts in Betla, East and West Chipadohar of neighbouring Latehar district are lying vacant.
