*Animal Welfare Board takes on cattle owners *

 

Staff Reporter

 

*Cattle sent for cattle race *

 

PALAKKAD: Kerala Animal Welfare Board State committee member A.G. Babu has

filed a police complaint against more than 100 animal owners who sent their

cattle for the cattle race organised at Chithali, near Kuzhalmannam, here on

Sunday.

 

The complaint was filed at the Kuzhalmannam police station as none of the

over 100 cattle heads that participated in the race organised by the Cattle

Race Club of India produced the required fitness and transport certificates

from veterinary doctors.

 

The Veterinary Department had deputed four doctors to check the fitness

certificate but none of the cattle owners could produce them. This was a

violation of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Rules, 2001.

 

The law prohibits the torture of animals for such competitions.

 

Mr. Babu said the owners also did not possess any certificate to transport

the animals, which was a violation of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals

(Transport of Animals) Rules, 2001.

 

The rule says " A valid certificate issued by an officer or any person or

Animal Welfare Organisation duly recognised and authorised for this purpose

by the Animal Welfare Board of India or the Central Government shall be

procured by any persons making transport of any animal before transportation

of such animal verifying that all the relevant Central and State Acts, rules

and orders pertaining to the said animals including the rules relating to

transport of such animals have been duly complied with and that the animal

is not being transported for any purpose contrary to the provision of any

law. "

 

`Rules violated'

 

He said for violation of these rules " the custody of the animals immediately

after unloading from the rail wagons, truck or any other vehicle shall be

given to the authorised Animal Welfare Organisation if available, till the

competent authority or the magistrate having jurisdiction decided about

their care and upkeep. "
