There is nothing to worry about- SP
Mysore SP says that some gelatin sticks have been found. Their source is not yet known. It seems that these were being used to hunt pigs. People of these areas adopt similar methods. We have seen this before. Someone must have come for hunting and must have forgotten and gone away. There is nothing to worry about. However, we are investigating all the aspects.
What is gelatin rod?
Gelatin is nitrocellulose or gun cotton, which is broken down into nitroglycerine or nitroglycol and wood pulp or saltpeter is added to it. It burns slowly, but causes a fierce explosion when it comes in contact with detonators. It is a very cheap explosive material. Gelatin rods are used in digging mines and wells. It is very dangerous and to avoid the possibility of an accident, it is kept in a sand bag. In such a situation, even if it explodes, it does not cause much harm to any human being.
