Amid a mad rush to grab a look at the lions at Sasan Gir during
the festival season, several tourists, who tried to break the law, were
caught by forest officials and fined. Forest rangers caught 10 men
entering the Gir forest area without permission in two incidents and
imposed a fine of Rs 22,000 on them. "There is a heavy rush of tourists
at Sasan Gir. Those who do not get permission, tend to enter the
sanctuary area by any means. We have formed special teams of forest
guards to check such activities," said a top forest officer.
