HUNDREDS of activists, farmers and nature lovers from Mysuru and Bengaluru as well as neighbouring Tamil Nadu and Kerala took out a massive march and cycle rally in Bandipur on Sunday, urging the Karnataka government not to lift the night traffic ban in the national park.

Braving the scorching sun, the protesters marched from Kaggaladahundi to Sultan Bathery Road, holding 'Save Bandipur' placards to send a strong message to the government not to act on the proposal to lift the night traffic ban.

Wildlife photographer Senani said the biodiversity-rich Nilgiri biosphere, which covers 5,500 sq km, should be protected and people should understand the importance of conservation. "Roadkills pose a serious threat to every species, including frogs," he said, highlighting the importance of the night ban.
