Bombay High Court Refuses To Interfere With BMC's Restrictions On Bakrid Animal Sacrifices

Live Law  

The Bombay High Court on Tuesday refused to interfere with the BMC's circular limiting to 300, the number of water buffaloes to be sacrificed at the designated Deonar abattoir across three days of Eid-ul-Adha or Bakriid, from July 21 to July 23. On Tuesday, the Court said that the petitioner's primary grievance to designate a place to slaughter big animals on the occasion of Eid was addressed with BMC issuing the circular yesterday. They contended that BMC's circular permitting online purchase of big animals on July 2 for Bakrid did not cap the number of animals allowed to be purchased. Senior Advocate Anil Sakhare for the BMC said that they had allowed merely 50 big animals to be slaughtered at Deonar last year during Bakrid.
