Schools closed, night curfew in Pauri villages after tiger kills 2

With the tiger having been often spotted lurking near villages in Rikhnikhal and Nainidanda blocks of Pauri district, just north of the tiger reserve, people have been warned against venturing out after dark. Speaking about the terror caused by the tiger, Laxmi Devi, a village pradhan told TOI, “Even the local MLA, Dilip Rawat, spotted the tiger while visiting the area. Staying indoors cannot be a long-term solution. How will our children go to school? All of us are in extreme fear.”
