First it was official incompetence, now it is the weather. The already delayed rhino translocation programme could be further affected by frequent rains in the areas where the animals are located and their proposed destination in Manas National Park. A senior official of the Forest Department told The Assam Tribune that the project is long delayed and cost-over runs are expected.
