GS Paper 3 (150 words)
“Human–Elephant Conflict (HEC) in Assam has reached crisis proportions. Examine the causes and suggest mitigation strategies.”
Introduction (25–30 words)
Assam has recorded over 70 human and 40 elephant deaths in 2025, with an alarming rise in deliberate electrocution incidents. The scale and intensity indicate a deepening ecological and governance crisis.
Body (100 words)
HEC in Assam is driven by rapid habitat loss, fragmentation of elephant corridors, and shrinking forest food sources. Climate anomalies—such as erratic rainfall and prolonged floods—push elephants into farmlands. Unplanned linear infrastructure, low-hanging power lines, and expanding settlements intensify encounters.
Socio-economic pressures—crop loss, inadequate compensation, and lack of rapid-response mechanisms—lead to hostile community behaviour, including illegal electrification of farms. Weak coordination between the Forest, Power, Revenue, and Disaster departments aggravates the situation. Increasing elephant mortality threatens Assam’s biodiversity and undermines conservation gains.
Conclusion (20–25 words)
Mitigating HEC requires habitat restoration, safe power infrastructure, fast compensation, community participation, and inter-departmental coordination to ensure sustainable coexistence between people and elephants.s of the Northeast.
