COMPASSION UNLIMITED PLUS ACTION Vs. UNION OF INDIA

JUDGEMENT

(1.) Taken on Board.

(2.) The application for intervention stands allowed.

(3.) Apart from intervention, in the application there is also a prayer seeking vacation of the order of stay dated 12.01.2016 passed in the writ petition. It is contended in the application that the Jallikattu is not a fight between bulls and humans but a game where the participants are required to embrace the running bulls by hanging on to their hump as long as possible; and they are unarmed. It is also put forth that the bulls are trained not to let the village youth clamber on to their humps and in no case they are led away by the owners afterwards.
