Due to the terror of wild juvenile Matta Yamagaj, all the domesticated elephants that were transferred last year from Amleganj Hattisar in Parsa Rashtriya Nikunj have not been able to return to Hattisar. Now only 5 elephants have returned to Hattisar namely Narayangaj, Kaminikali, Raptikali, Chisenlakali and Maheshgaj.

Menakakali has been placed at Gaduwaline post of Nikunj, Pawankali and Champakali at Bhatha post and Bhimakali and Sitashmakali at Pratappur post. There are a total of 10 elephants in the Hattisar of Nikunj, but not all the elephants of the Darbandi have been brought back to the Hattisar at the same time as in the past.

Nikunj Conservation and Information Officer Santosh Kumar Bhagat Yamagaj Matta says Amlegjanj is still active around Hattisar. "Because of Yamgaj, the elephants of Hattisar had to be taken away for a long time," he said, "They started bringing back the elephants of Hattisar so that they would not come, but Yamgaj is still roaming around."

2 years ago on the day of Yama Panchak, the wild elephant was named 'Yamgaj' because it killed a woman in Amlekhganj of Bara. Since then, he has killed half a dozen civilians in Bara, Rautahat and Makwapur as well. Yamgaj did not stop chasing 8 female elephants from Amlekhganj Hattisar in Nikunj, in the month of November of the same year, those elephants were taken from Hattisar in Nikunj to Rambhauribhata post, which is considered to be the core area of ​​Nikunj, about 25 km west. .

After reaching Yamagaj and starting to pick up, the dhow was transferred from there to Pratappur post, about 37 km west of Makwanpur. Yamagaj had 2 encounters with other Matta elephants around Pratappur post. After the same Matta chased Yamagaj, Yamagaj has been roaming in different areas of Parsa, Bara and Makwanpur and Rautahat since 2 years.

After a long journey, in the first week of January last year, the dhows were gradually returned to their old abode, Hattisar, according to the plan. But Bhagat says that Yamagaj is still roaming around Hattisar.

2 years ago Yamgaj killed a woman while grazing goats in the intermediate area of ​​Nikunj in Amlekhganj, at that time the technical team of National Nature Conservation Fund, Biodiversity Conservation Center Sauraha Chitwan came and cut both Yamgaj's beards with darts. Although Yamagaj's beard was cut in the hope of reducing his arrogance, his arrogance did not decrease.

Even 2 years ago, Yamagaj used to stay near Amlekhganj Hattisar and enter Hattisar during the night and forcefully infest all the dhois and fight with Matta Narayangaj who was there. During the day, Hattisar used to stay behind and enter the nearby human settlements to steal food. Currently, 16-year-old Kishore Yamgaj forced intercourse with all the dhois in Hattisar, except the 5-year-old dhoi Bhimakali.

Seeing the possibility of Bhimakali being raped, the employees of Hattisar protected Bhimakali. Elephants are reared for jungle safari and patrolling in Nikunj for the tourists coming to Nikunj in Hattisar. They have government posts. Accordingly, for their services, each elephant has a maut, fanait and pachuwa. They also get daily ration.

A group of wild elephants make a long journey from Jhapa to Chitwan National Park every year and return after a certain time. But 2 years ago 3 of the elephants that came from Jhapa have stayed here for a long time. There is a possibility that they can become the Raithane of this place. Usually, towards the end of June, groups of elephants make long journeys using their traditional route of Chure Pawart near the human settlement, eating rice and corn crops.
