Asian News International Oct 03, 2018 18:27:13 ISTCourt on Wednesday expressed concern over the death of lions in Gir forest in Gujarat and urged the Centre to protect them as it's "extremely serious" situation.
A bench headed by Justice Madan B Lokur said, "Lions must be protected. You (government) must find out the reasons and do something to stop it."
In September, over 21 lions have died in the Gir Wildlife Sanctuary and National Park, due to various reasons.
"This is extremely serious. So many lions have died," the bench said while asking the Centre to file a response on the issue.
The Gujarat government also assured the court that necessary action will be taken on the death of lions in Gir forest. The court granted one week time to the governments.
