The suggestions include to scare away the elephants by shooting with with rubber bullets and to kill other wild animals, the farmers, without any affiliation to political parties, said.

Some of the farmers wore masks with the face of Sivasamy, alleged that the representations given to the ministers and concerned department officials fell into deaf ears.
