Illegal animal trafficking causing threat to national security

A car rally was held in the national capital today. Working professionals and school children protested against the atrocities on animals and the illegal animal trade taking place at the Bangladesh border via Bihar and West Bengal. Organized by an animal protection organization Dhyan Foundation along with People For Animals (PFA), the rally saw hoards of people in at least 500 cars decorated with banners and our national flag.

"United Humans Against Atrocities on Animals" was the theme of the rally which began from Kasturbha Gandhi Marg and made its first pitstop at the office of the resident commissioner for West Bengal at Baba Kharak Singh Marg, and then moving on to Bihar Bhawan in Chanakyapuri. "Mafia-Police nexus, bandh karo bandh karo" read one of the banners and the slogan was raised by the large crowd in unison outside their vehicles while protesting outside the West Bengal resident commissioner's office.
