Border breached

Early this morning we had another encroachment event when next door neighbour came and cut some trees on our land.  We called the police who came and took the most decisive action I have ever seen since being in India.  He confiscated the chain saw – although I did feel a bit sorry for the person who it belonged to as he was probably cutting trees as he was told and nothing to do with the encroachment.

In the picture the policeman in the red shirt is explaining about confiscating the chain saw.  The person in the blue jeans is a volunteer who looks a bit nervous about the whole thing. The person who owns the chain saw is looking very anxiously at it.


I could have done without all the extra hassle and work caused which included writing reports and taking them to the police station.
