Any particular reason? Elephant is a very adorable god in our mythology. And we all love our Ganapati. But in the wild, a lone tusker - perhaps an ousted bull - is a bloody dangerous animal. It can kill you within seconds, as it does so often in north Bengal. But rarely does it attack a car. That's true as well.
I think Anirban you are right. It felt challenged by the forward movement of the vehicle and changed its mind when the vehicle started retreating.
Saurav your experience is unique I guess. You should write a travelogue on Dooars as well.
Anyway, all's well that ends well.
