DISTRICT MAGISTRATE, KATRA REPLY ON CRUELTY WITH PONIES - NARESH KADYAN

 

Abhishek Kadyan, Media Adviser to the OIPA in India, 14.07.2009 04:17

 

Ponies are being ill treated in Jammu and Kashmir, some ponies are used to carry

goods in night but these animals are left un attended in day times as stray,

some used to ride as vehicle - no food, no shelter, treatment and care for them.

As J & K have special status given under 370 Indian Constitutionals

provisions.....hence no Indian laws are enforce over there....Indian Panel Code

replaced by Ranbir Panel Code along with separate laws of the land. The

Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960 - all rules made under section 38 of

this act replaced by the Jammu and Kashmir Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act,

1990.

 

A team of the International Organization for Animal Protection - OIPA in India

along with the activist of the People for Animals (PFA) Haryana led by Naresh

Kadyan visited Jammu, Katra and holy cave shrine of Maa Vaishno Devi to

investigate the cruel / ill treatment with the Ponies over there, team found

very cruel treatment with these poor animals for individual profit for personnel

gain and animal suffered a lot. Naresh Kadyan taken up this matter with the

Chief Minister and Director General of Police, Jammu and Kashmir along with the

local administration.

The District Magistrate, Katra responded to the complaint lodged by Naresh

Kadyan as given below:-

We are in receipt of your E-Mail dated 06-07-2009 with regard to

Cruel/ ill-treatment being meted out to the ponies. In this behalf, it is

intimated that the issue raised by you stands referred to the concerned quarters

for enquiry and appropriate corrective/punitive action on priority.

 

 

 

 

 

?May Mata Vaishno Devi ji bless all of us?

 

As per section 3, 11 and 38 of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960 -

cruel treatment with the animals is a non-cognizable crime in legal terms with

minor punishment for rest of India except Jammu and Kashmir but as per Jammu and

Kashmir Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1990 also protect these animals

from un-necessary pain and sufferings but the punishment defined very minor for

the violation of the said act.

The International Organization for Animal Protection - OIPA in India in the

opinion that 370 provisions are the political compulsions then why animal

suffered due to 370 special status for the state, People for Animals (PFA)

Haryana raised this issue under the right to information act, 2005 with the

Speaker Lok Sabha but no attention given to resolve the issue yet by the

central, J & K Govt. as well.
