bull fight: Govt DGP served legal notice

BY HERALD REPORTER
PANJIM, FEB 1 – The President for People of Animal, Adv Norma Alvares has 
issued legal notice to
the State Government and the Director General of Police on the bull fight issue.
In its December 20, 1996 order  High Court  had ordered that the bull fights 
‘dhirios’ are in
contravention of the Provisions of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 
1968 and directed the
state government to take immediate steps to ban all types of animal fights.

The notice states that while bull fights were stopped for some years following 
the court order in
the recent years, once again, “barbaric trend” of organizing bull fights, 
usually at the end of
the harvest season has re-emerged with “full fervour”. The notice called for  
immediate action be
taken to stop the illegal organization of bull fights in the state lest it will 
invite contempt of
court.
