Catholic Church locks horns with LDF over wild gaur issue

The Hindu  

As the groundswell of anger over the death of three persons by a raging wild gaur continues to rock the high-range settlements of Central Travancore, the issue on Sunday took a political turn with a war of words between the Catholic church and Forest Minister A.K. The episode began to unfold in the morning when Mr. Saseendran, while addressing the media in the morning, criticised the Kerala Catholic Bishops Council – the apex body of the catholic Church in Kerala. The organisation should uphold its tradition of maintaining peace and harmony,’’ the Minister said, alluding to the criticisms levelled by the church against the government on the issue. While Mar Remigiose Inchananiyil, Bishop of the Thamarassery diocese, turned down a request by Mr. Saseendran for a meeting, the KCBC, in a statement, urged the Minister not to get impatient when the Church raises its concerns on general issues.
