Answer» 12, Temple Road Puri 20th March, 20×× The Editor The Orissa Times Puri Sub: Nuisance Caused by Stray Cattle Sir Through the columns of your esteemed daily, I want to express my anguish and concern at the nuisance caused by the stray cattle in the city. Of late the city has witnessed many accidents due to the nuisance caused by the stray cattle. Only a few days ago a biker was killed when a running cow hit him in the middle of the road. We can’t imagine cattle strolling leisurely on the roads of New York, London or Sydney. But India presents totally a different scene. You can find cows walking with leisurely steps on the highways or in the lanes of any city. Puri is a temple town. To make things still worse, people throw food in the middle of the roads for the animals. The roads become feeding centres of cows, bulls, horses, donkeys and dogs. There is no arrangement of capturing such stray cattle and sending them to the special pens run by the corporation. There should be a special squad. It should have fixed responsibilities of clearing away the roads from the unwanted and stray cattle. Yours faithfully Murli Panda |
