Listed as Near Threatened as the population reduction in India is estimated to be less than 30%, while for China and Myanmar it is estimated to be more than 30%. However, since much of the population exists within India, the taxon is assessed as Near Threatened as it almost qualifies as threatened under criterion A2.
