“PETA go ban bull riding rodeos in Mr.Trump’s U.S. You’re not qualified to tackle our bulls. Empires have been made to quit India. People at long last are getting a taste of true democracy. Gone are the days of leaders. We need humble pathfinders & social reformers. American areated drink makers might be tempted to sponser jallikattu. Beware.” Kamal Haasan wrote on Twitter.
Thousands of protesters have gathered in different parts of the world to express their support to lift the ban on Jallikattu. Raghava Lawrence has also joined the protest that is taking place on Marina beach, Chennai.

This is a commendable and inspiring move by Raghava Lawrence who is silently helping the needy whenever it demands.

Slowly, the Telugu film industry is also supporting the Jallikattu protests happening in Tamilnadu. Already Mahesh Babu tweeted his opinion on this and has praised the spirit being showed by Tamilnadu. Now, it is the time for Power Star Pawan Kalyan. Pawan Kalyan also tweeted his stand on Jallikattu ban. Pawan also added his views regarding Cock Fightings ban.
Pawan Kalyan on Jallikattu
Pawan Kalyan, tweeted, “Looking at the cows & roosters in my farm made me to think about the Ban of Jallikattu & Kodipandem in Dakshin Bharath. BAN on ‘Jallikattu’ & ‘Kodipandem’ by Govt of India is an Attack on Dravida Culture and its integrity; This is how it is being viewed in Dakshin Hindustan. I had observed this ‘deep hurt’ in people of ‘Dakshin Bharat’ while I was shooting in Pollachi (Tamilnadu) and during my political interactions in Andhra about the Ban of their respective cultural events in recent times. Govt of India, cited ‘Animal Cruelty’ as the reason for the ban of ‘Jallikattu and Kodipandem’ If we truly consider this puritanical approach then, we have to examine the statistics of Indian Beef export & Indian Poultry industry.”
India is the largest exporter of Beef in the world;2.4 million tonnes of Beef&Veal exported by India in 2015, where as Brazil and Australia could export only 2 And 1.5 million tonnes. And Beef exports fetches almost $5Billion with 14 percent growth rate every year. And interestingly, these top Beef exporting firms are owned by ‘HINDUS’ and not Muslims.
Imagine..How many Cows, Calves and Buffaloes should be slaughtered to get 2.4 million tonnes of Beef. How come this kind of slaughtering does not attract Animal Cruelty? just because we don’t see it !! Why the Animal cruelty act applied only to Jallikattu, where the animals getting injured or killed is insignificant when compared to the amount of animals that had to be slaughtered for business.
Kodipandem is the cultural identity of ‘Andhras’; if the Central Govt is serious about enforcing ‘Animal Cruelty Act’ then they should Ban ‘Poultry industry’ also; which produces around 8.4 lakhs tons of poultry meat by killing millions of chicken.
Somewhere we have to draw a line for this ‘Moralistic Madness’ in our Society; otherwise it would be very difficult to keep our Nation’s Integrity intact. JanaSena urges Central Govt to lift the Ban on Jallikattu and Kodipandem. JAI HIND!!
Justice for Jallikattu is being heard in a louder voice now in the Tamilnadu state. People are voluntarily coming on to the roads and protesting against the ban on their traditional sport. It’s a fact that the supreme court has ordered a ban on Jallikattu sport calling it as a cruelty towards animals. With the increase in a range of protests, the South Indian film artists Union has also come forward in support to the protests. The Union members said that there wouldn’t be any shootings happening today.

Along with that the also said that there will be a pause for all film related works. On the other side, students are turning in huge numbers after Annamalai university announcing holidays for the university till 22nd.
The life of Celebrities is very hard sometimes. Each and every word utter by them leads to controversy in many ways. Trisha is an example of such thing. Her recent support for animals made her a crucial decision in her personal life.
Trisha Not Against Jallikattu
We knew that Trisha is an animal lover and a volunteer supporter of PETA, an animal welfare association. She has been a brand ambassador for that for some years. Recently, she voiced out her opinion that torturing animals are bad. But to everyone’s surprise, her fans viewed some tweets from her official Twitter account regarding the ban of ‘Jallikattu’ as torturing animals are sadistic. Within minutes, hatred tweets and unethical reactions are flooded her inbox. Finally, she deleted her Twitter account with frustration.
She has lodged a complaint in police station along with her mother under cyber crime. She claims that though she is an animal lover, she was not anti to Tamil culture which has been followed for centuries. She declared that her account was hacked by idiots and made some tweets anti to Jallikattu. Whatever may be the reason, she deleted her Twitter without her mistake.
