  • BJP leader Lahar Singh Siroya on Monday appealed to the Karnataka government to resist any pressure to lift the ban on night-time traffic through Bandipur National Park.

BJP MP Lahar Singh Siroya has urged the Karnataka government to reconsider the night traffic ban on the Bandipur National Park stretch of National Highway 766, citing its adverse impact on local residents and tourists. In a letter to Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, Siroya highlighted that the ban, implemented to reduce wildlife accidents, has instead caused significant inconvenience, particularly to those needing urgent medical attention and to tourists. He suggested alternative solutions like speed limits and enhanced patrolling to mitigate wildlife accidents while allowing continuous traffic flow. Siroya emphasized the need for a balanced approach that considers both wildlife conservation and the welfare of the people.
