ഇതൊന്നും ആരും കാണുന്നില്ലേ


According to Chapter Three of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, if any person beats, kicks, over-rides, over-drives, over-loads, tortures or otherwise treats any animal so as to subject the animal to unnecessary pain or suffering or causes, or being the owner, permits, any animal to be so treated; or conveys or carries, whether in or upon any vehicle or not, any animal in such a manner or position as to subject the animal to unnecessary pain or suffering, he [or she] shall be punishable by the appropriate fine, and repeat offenders may be imprisoned.
This Act also requires that watering arrangements en route be made and that sufficient quantities of water be carried for emergency. It further states that sufficient feed and fodder with adequate reserve be carried to last during the journey and that adequate ventilation should be ensured. The Act requires that lorries carrying animals be equipped with anti-slip flooring, padding on the sides and suitable rope and platforms. At Deonar, these laws are all ignored.
