A tiger that has been moving through forested areas near the Polavaram project site in Andhra Pradesh has caused panic among workers at the construction site. The tiger, named Explorer, was observed in the region over the past couple of days, leading to concerns for safety among laborers. Forest officials have advised workers to avoid traveling alone and to refrain from venturing out at night.
The animal has been seen moving through hillocks and tribal areas, including near Muttappakota and Itukalakota.
