How innocent these people are!. Its really a sad seen.
Even wild beasts are not allowing them to live peacefully.
Can any one think of keeping Super Cross or Rugby festivals for few sibling, while people suffer like this!. Oh sorry, they will say that is the nature or use the word 'Karma'.

The poor are vulnerable to all kind of risks in their battle against survival.

An innocent boy's life been lost for not giving them enough help and supports.

We (without any politicians involved) should create a charity to support these people.

Elephant replant trees like Gajamadara, chilli, Durian, Flax or Katuwalbatu should be planted around these houses built on elephant habitat.
Some body should educate these villagers and supply those plants to them if they can't get them there.
Saving these human lives also give you merits and blessings, so people who wants to save cows can do these and save human and elephant both lives.

Authorities are powerless or careless to stop illegal human encroachments that's why elephants behave like this.

Very sad state of affairs. More need to be done for these rural families such as cement block homes , that they could feel safe at night from marauding rogue elephants or secure electric fences be erected where humans and wild elephant live closely.
