Kolhapur, 27th February 2024 (GNI) : After receiving reports from a concerned resident regarding an illegal ram fight event scheduled to take place at the Mahalaxmi Yatra in Bhadvan village, Ajara tehsil, Kolhapur district, on 18 February, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) India promptly and successfully took action to stop the event by notifying and collaborating with Kolhapur police. An FIR has been registered by Ajara police station under Section 11 of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960 against five persons – the organizers of the event and animal owners who brought rams to the venue for participating in the fight. Police intervened in the nick of time and prevented the event from taking place.
 
“Spectacles in which animals are forced to fight are cruel, violent, and illegal,” says PETA India Cruelty Response Coordinator Sunayana Basu. “We commend Kolhapur police, especially Superintendent of Police Shri Mahendra Pandit, IPS, for sending a message that cruelty to animals will not be tolerated.”
 
Ram fighting involves pitting two male sheep against each other in a violent and often bloody confrontation. The animals are hit and goaded into fighting until one is deemed the winner. This practice subjects them to significant physical and psychological harm, including injuries such as fractures, puncture wounds, and severe stress.
 
PETA India – whose motto reads, in part, that “animals are not ours to use for entertainment” – opposes speciesism, a human-supremacist worldview. For more information, please visit PETAIndia.com  – ENDS GNI
