DHAKA: Forest officials of India and Bangladesh are planning to tranquilise an elephant that was washed across the border a month ago and transport it back to northeast India via the land route.
The Indian elephant crossed the border from Assam due to the strong currents of the Brahmaputra river.
A team of Indian wildlife experts is in Jamalpur's Sarishabarhi in Bangladesh where the elephant was roaming, bdnews24 reported.
An Indian wildlife officer told the BBC that officials from both nations were working together to rescue the animal.
