Ahmedabad:
Days ahead of Bakr-Eid, police commissioners of Ahmedabad and Surat in Gujarat have issued orders prohibiting animal sacrifice at public places and private places where it would be visible to the public.
The notifications, issued by Ahmedabad Police Commissioner Ashish Bhatia and his Surat counterpart RB Brahmbhatt, “prohibit animal sacrifice on Eid-al-Adha, to be celebrated on August 1, at public places and at private places where it would be visible to the public.” Such public sacrifice would “hurt the sentiments of people of other faiths”, the notifications said. — PTI
