’We worship lions’: Calcutta HC remarks on lioness being named ‘Sita’
Live MintThe Calcutta High Court on February 21 directed the West Bengal government to obtain details while hearing a plea by the Vishva Hindu Parishad against the naming of a lioness at Siliguri's Safari Park as 'Sita', reported LiveLaw. Earlier, Vishva Hindu Parishad or World Hindu Council moved the court seeking an order to change the name of the lioness. The petitioners also noted that another five-year-old lion is in the North Bengal Wildlife Animals Park and has been named Akbar. The VHP's West Bengal secretary Lakshman Bansal, one of the complainants, said, as quoted by Reuters, "Such act amounts to blasphemy and is a direct assault on the religious beliefs of all Hindus," adding "Sita and Akbar cannot be allowed to live together."
