Forest Department personnel raided the farmhouse of actor Darshan near T. Narsipur and seized four Bar-headed geese on the grounds that he was possessing them in violation of the law. The Mysuru Forest Mobile Squad personnel landed at the farm late on Friday night and confirmed the presence of four Bar-headed geese, according to Bhaskar, Deputy Conservator of Forests in charge of the squad. He said a video uploaded on social media showed the actor talking about the birds and it went viral following which the Forest Department decided to act. Mr. Bhaskar said the plan was to release the birds in Hadinaru lake – near Nanjangud — which is a sanctuary for migratory birds that fly in during winter.
