BOKAKHAT, Aug 25: The Kaziranga National Park authorities have taken stringent measures to control the speed of the vehicles on NH 37 in the KNP area in an attempt to protect the animals crossing the highway to take shelter in the forests of Karbi Anglong. Incessant rainfall has submerged a lot of areas in the KNP due to which animals are forced to seek shelter in Karbi Anglong. The speed limit for vehicles have been set at 40 km per hour. Anybody found guilty of crossing the speed limit would be fined by the security guards patrolling the highway. While no animal death has been reported so far, the forest guards are working day and night in order to provide protection to the animals from poachers and flood. As many on eight forest camps have been inaugurated in the park so far.
