Total twenty villages were affected in Balasore Division where majority of the people are agricultural dependant. In the year 2005-06 two elephants were killed and in 2006-07 one elephant was killed in Balesore Division with no spectacular harm to human habitation. In the year 2007-08, 08-09, 09-10 several houses and acres of crop fields were damaged by elephants.
