I am so upset about the changes to the livestock bill that I am not sure I can put forward a coherent argument but I will try - unlike cattle, there is currently no "market" for dogs other than 1) a market for breed dogs (hence the large number of illegal and backyard breeders in India) and 2) a market for dog meat in Nagaland (High Court has just lifted ban). What this new bill is doing is creating a legal market for dogs ...but dogs are not bred for slaughter so where do we think they are going to come from ?

Street dogs is the answer and I do not believe it's a coincidence that several municipalities in North India have just said they will open large dog pounds to ostensibly implement better ABC (animal birth control) but the likelihood that they will be become sources for legal exporters is high in my humble opinion. not only that, every Tom, Dick and Harry can now catch dogs and become a supplier to legal exporters. Do we not see a huge problem with that, whether we are animal lovers or not ?:

Stiff regulations because we all know that illegal activities will trump/ignore/circumvent any regulations made to prevent misuse of the law. All the research shows that culling/removal of dogs from an area does not reduce the #of dogs over time and the only answer is sustained ABC - Jaipur was a model case study where an estimated 60-70% of stray dogs had been sterilised before the municipality pulled the contract for ABC and it all slowly went downhill ...all we will be doing with this bill is giving the municipalities a way not to do their job...and encourage inhumane catching by anybody and everybody because now there will be a market for live dogs.

Over and above all this, where is our compassion for these animals - livestock is treated as a commodity which means there are very few controls on how they are transported ....if we have to export, let's export only meat, not live animals ...at least the animals die here and we can imagine that the regulations/export quality monitoring will ensure humane killing methods in India ...but we will have little control over how they are transported and killed once they leave our shores !

Anyone who is aware/ abreast of the UN Agendas .. Farming, Livestock, etc etc ie

Frameworks under Development & being pushed by UN on Govts globally..

These are comprehensive Control Agendas, that start with enumeration, estimation, stock number, maintaining a country wise & global inventory of all living things, resources etc etc..

And putting in place a complete global control system, controlled by these Agencies..

Dictating to national Govts. That's the Goal.

This exercise, is IMO, is ultimately linked to these underlying requirements that this Govt has to / is required to comply with / put into place, enabling legislation.. to achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Of which, this is just one small subset..

The Cageyness & brevity of this Bill,.. itself points to this uneasiness...ie

No Explanation, No Background, no rationale to link up this objective - or to anything,

This is a Govt Exercise in cover up & their usual creeping, stealth agenda. To comply with these UN requirements.IMO

Politically it can be a hot potato, when & if linked. And exposed.

That is WHY ..it is so terse, and makes no sense.. except when seem in the light of the above.

Granted Australia NZ et al ..have since long had paranoid & draconian laws re control & import & export of livestock & plant species..

But that is old history.

This is ..The current deadlines - that are of the UN.

And are babus & politicians do not want to stick their necks out, at this stage. Election year next year.. And Karnataka recent political result, creates its own tensions & paranoia..

So, do not expect anything explicit. Which goes into Tying into UN SD Agendas. 2021, 2030.

With BRICS making its own tracks, & hopes - *expect a lot of contrary signals & Lots of obfuscation* .

Just like DEMO, Covid - PCR RT etc & the Farm Bills .. the globalist Control Agenda.. is TOTAL control.

The present Govt/s - are in bed with these forces.

Till they find it is politically expedient - to have to jump ship, change boats.. etc..

That's all part of the Long / Big Picture..

And back story.

This is an emotional as well as informative post.

It’s probably stuff most people don’t think about.

The only redeeming factor for me has been discovering that there are a large number of people fighting their battle for animal rights and justice and this number is growing.

Ofcourse I don’t see them being stronger than political forces. That’s the sad part. Buka / Bagaimana

Thanks for the suggestions.

I think even most animal activists also aren’t aware as this one is so sudden.

What you say is right.

I think in this case yesterday was the tweetathon and there was literally no time to prepare anything. All of us were busy.

I also saw that animal rescuers were struggling with Twitter and also with just getting their head out of water so to speak.

Most animal rescuers and activists are so busy just handling emergencies they barely are able to do anything additional.

Your point is well received. Buka / Bagaimana
