Garhshankar December 14 - Animals and birds are precious creatures for the welfare of humanity and they contribute a lot to the economy of the country and to strengthen the existence of humanity. But on the contrary, man has remained limited to his selfishness. Labor Party President Jai Gopal Dhiman blamed the Punjab government's carelessness in not implementing the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act 1960 and leaving the elderly and deprived cows exposed to torture on the National Highways and Kandi Kanal by selfish people. Condemning the Punjab government in strict terms, he said that while these animals are causing accidents on the roads, they are destroying the farmers' crops.
Dhiman said that the act in the country is not bad, if it is bad, then the thinking and performance of the government is bad, which is doing unconstitutional things towards the animals instead of working according to the law, keeping their private interests as the main focus, due to which the people have given them today. The welfare of the animals is not being spent even by going (Kao Sais). He said that a barren cow near Handowal, whose leg has been broken due to an accident, is living her life in agony. He is being cared for for the past 1 week and has a tag number 102324498465 attached to his ear which can also be used to identify his owner.
It is a type of animal Aadhaar card number. Seeing its poor condition, Dhiman immediately brought it to the attention of the Deputy Director Animal Husbandry Department, and due to the severe lack of provisions, the cow had to live in the fields in a cold environment of around 6, 7 degrees. falling In this way, many animals wander on the roads and they themselves die and become a loss of life for others.
Dhiman said that the Punjab government is collecting lakhs of rupees every day from different schemes. He said that the stray animals can be given a good life. When the cess is going to the government treasury, it is also the duty of the government to give good life to animals and provide modern infrastructure in government animal dispensaries, hospitals. He said that lakhs of rupees can be spent on people's accidents, but nothing is being done for the welfare of animals.
He said that due to lack of attention to government animal hospitals, valuable animals are being deprived in large numbers and they are being left on the road by selfish people to suffer oppression and have accidents. But due to government negligence, the animal welfare board formed in 1960 is limited to the operation of tea pakoras. Dhiman appealed to the people not to leave the animals on the roadsides and in Kandi Kanal to endure oppression, instead of this, they should make a solid arrangement to stand in front of the houses of the representatives of the Punjab government so that a question arises about them in the Vidhan Sabha.
