Fencing is being restored, identified blind spots are being covered so that fence doesn't get cut again at the same spot....
W/o concrete or hard boulder the poles will fall.Also, the bottom part have cross links for reinforcements.
I think These forts in future can become a nice family picnic point for tourism because of their superb locations
