•Inadequate funds, lack of infrastructural support and lack of awareness among the people about importance of conservation of wildlife. • Enormous biotic pressure over the Sanctuary area by the human and cattle population in 8 enclosure villages and 37 villages with in 5 kms radius of the sanctuary. • The sanctuary area being highly undulating and desiccating during summer fire plays havoc which makes it impossible to fight forest fires. • Many places of worship located inside the sanctuary drawing hundreds of pilgrims makes the local administration helpless to have a check on their movement within the sanctuary. • Lack of adequate staff and motor able roads in the undulating area is a big hindrance with regard to protection of the wildlife.
