A life's worth shouldn't be 50 rupees!
A life's worth shouldn't be 50 rupees!
The Issue
A dog was heartlessly thrown of the terrace of a building by 2 men, and the incident was shot on camera. The dog might not have survived, but thanks to some very noble souls it miraculously did, wagging it's tail all along. Quick question, identify the animals here.
The punishment for this cold blooded behaviour, as estimated by our current laws? Fifty rupees. In fact anyone killing, maiming or beating a dog can get away with fifty rupees.
Is that all an animal's life is worth? I believe it is high time we ask for a change in a law brought into existence more than half a century ago - the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act of 1960. We need to ensure less of these monstrosities and make the ensuring laws way more stringent.
