Not unless they are installing fiber in one of very few national parks. 
Or maybe into a zoo or circus.  Tigers have been hunted into near 
extinction in India, as have Lions.

Leopards and panthers are rather more likely - there are some rather 
extensive forests just outside several large cities and towns, and these 
have been known to stray into town in search of garbage and meat 
markets.  And elephants have been known to crash into breweries, get 
drunk and go around uprooting telephone poles in some parts of the 
country (like the thickly forested north east).
