Authorities form teams to prevent cattle slaughter during Bakrid in Chikkamagaluru
To ensure its implementation, the Chikkamagaluru district administration formed teams to monitor the situation. The authorities also formed a task force to strictly implement the Karnataka Prevention of Slaughter and Preservation of Cattle Act, 2020, which is popularly known as the Anti-Cow Slaughter Act.
During the festival, there is a possibility of illegal transport and slaughter of cattle, oxen, calves, and camel.
To prevent this, district authorities instructed officials to coordinate, and be active in their respective areas from June 5 to 10. Two separate teams will monitor activities to prevent animal slaughter, in Chikkamagaluru city and rural areas.
Staff from each taluk will operate in other parts of the district, such as Mudigere, Kalasa, Sringeri, Koppa, Narasimharajapura, Tarikere, Ajjampura, and Kadur taluks.
These teams will primarily include officers from city council, town council, taluk panchayat, and town panchayat, as well as officials from the animal husbandry department and police sub-inspectors, according to the DC CN Meena Nagaraj.
Despite measures, illegal transportation of cattle is rampant in parts of Narasimharaja Pura taluk. A few days ago, right-wing activists, along with the police, rescued several cattle. In addition, cattle theft was averted by villagers recently. According to locals, the thieves transport cattle to Shivamogga, and urged police to take stringent measures to prevent the theft.

Centre continuing negative stand towards Kerala: CM Vijayan
He said that Kerala demanded that five kilograms of rice per card be provided to non-priority families at the rate of Rs 8.30 currently being provided to the state as a tide-over allocation. The CM, in a Facebook post, has called for a united protest by all political parties against the alleged anti-Kerala stand of the central government. Thiruvananthapuram, Jul 3 (PTI) Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has claimed that the BJP-led central government's negative stand is continuing as it rejected the state's demand for additional rice allocation for the Onam festival season. The state government also demanded that the allotment of wheat, which was being provided as a tide-over allocation until two years ago, be restored, he said. To prevent the price of rice from soaring in the market during special occasions like Onam, it is necessary to ensure the availability of food grains to the non-priority sections as much as possible, he said. 'It is in this context that the state demanded an additional rice allocation to be provided to the non-priority sections,' Vijayan said in his post. He also said that according to health statistics, a significant section of the state's population is suffering from diabetes, and that is why the demand for restoring the allotment of wheat to the non-priority sections was raised. 'But the central government has been ruthlessly rejecting these demands, which are meant to help the common people. A united protest should be raised in this regard, irrespective of party politics,' he insisted. 'Protest by the people is essential to correct the anti-Kerala policy of the central government. For that, we must stand united,' the CM said. PTI HMP HMP ADB This report is auto-generated from PTI news service. ThePrint holds no responsibility for its content.
