Monkey menace: Confusion over jurisdiction keeps problem alive in Delhi
India | July 11, 2019 12:30 ISTIn 2007, the Delhi High Court had asked the city government to provide cages for catching monkeys and municipal corporations to place them at various spots. The court directed authorities to shift the monkeys caught to the Asola sanctuary and the forest department to provide them food so that they do not venture out. In a bid to prevent monkeys from returning to human habitations, it had also directed authorities to erect a 15-feet wall in "the outer area of the sites where the monkeys are to be shifted".
