A major diaster was averted on Wednesday afternoon by a team of civic officials and local police, who controlled a circus elephant after it went berserk without any initial provocation. The circus management had requested a transit permission for shifting its elephants, but is yet to be issued one. The circus management had kept four elephants on a nearby grounds after wrapping up its schedule in July. The pachyderm was finally tamed after the officials sought suggestions from the forest department and Rambo Circus management over the phone. Animals from Rambo circus have been in the limelight for legal reasons for the past few months.
