This is not the first time SC's orders have been over rid .For instance , a state denied to release water from the dam to another state despite the SC ordering to do so .Babri Masjid was demolished against the SC's order (If I am right )I know ,it is wrong to go against the SC's order .But the protests are purely constitutional . We are just exercising our rights .We don't have a choice .This was our last resort

The main argument of pro Jallikatu people is that this helps keep the breed of bulls more visible and hence the breed will not die out. So its to protect indigenous breeds according to them. But why does a practice in which the bull have to be put through pain and torture have to be the way the breed is preserved. They can have showcase competitions like dog shows where the best kept healthy bull wins which will also keep the interest for the bull alive. People say that there is no torture to the animal but this is absolutely not true. When the ban was implemented the Supreme Court looked at all the proof of the torture objectively and gave the ban decision. Its not secret how bulls were starved, had chillies put in their eyes, had their tails twisted and broken to make them more aggressive. It is no fun for a lone bull to be fighting off hundreds of people jumping on it aggressively. South India has time and again gone against the Constitution and defied Supreme Court rulings on many matters. Then why have a Supreme Court? Just let anarchy rule.
More than anything the timing of lifting this ban is telling. There is a vacant power seat due to the death of Jayalalitha. All politicians are trying to cash in and trying to be popular because of the visibility this issue has gained. Every political party is trying to get into the good books of people for votes alone.The ordinance to lift the ban should never have been passed. It sets a wrong example about how unimportant the Supreme Court is. Eventually there will be a law and order situation for anything that goes against the popular vote which can in many cases be wrong and ruled only for egos of certain people.India is regressing to want such archaic animal abuse practices just in the name of tradition. South India has the most horrific animal abuse practices carried out in the name of religion and it will take a strong political will to stop these nonsense traditions from raising their heads. Elephant abuse, stray dog killings which really in the long run serve no purpose against a properly implemented birth control system, now this Jallikatu... just rampant animal abuse in the south. Very disturbed and disappointed with the lift of the ban.

This ban was stupid I mean this PETA has no guts to stop animal slaughtering in the name of religion but jallijakku is bad!
If indians can't perform jallijakku then they should also not celebrate bakrid and other kinds of animal abuse .
