RAIPUR: Chhattisgarh's Manendragarh district is poised to attract history enthusiasts and geologists with the discovery of a 280-million-year-old marine fossil site along the Hasdeo River.
The Wildlife Institute of India has warned that mining in Hasdeo will pose a serious threat to the Bango Dam (constructed in 1961-62 on the Hasdeo river) and worsen human-elephant conflict.
