Balaram Hazarika
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Balaram Hazarika (alias Nigona Shikari) was a noted Assamese animal tracker who showed Lady Curzon around Kaziranga and impressed upon her his urgency of wildlife conservation.[1] Concerned about the dwindling numbers of rhinoceros, she asked her husband, Lord Curzon, the Viceroy of India, to take necessary political action to save the rhinoceros.[2][3]
