Dhaka: Forest officials of India and Bangladesh are planning to tranquilise an elephant that washed across the border a month ago and transport it back to northeast India via the land route.

A team of Indian wildlife experts is in Jamalpur’s Sarishabarhi in Bangladesh where the elephant is roaming. A wildlife officer said both nations were working together to rescue the animal.
