On
11 March 2012, Plant & Animals Welfare Society –
Mumbai (PAW-Mumbai) Office received a E-Mail send by Citizen Mr. Gajendra to The Commissioner of Police – Navi Mumbai
and copy of it have been forwarded to the MP Dr. Sanjeev G Naik in regards to “Cruelty
on Elephants in Navi Mumbai”.
I
have filmed this video in Sector-2, Koper Khairne, Navi Mumbai in last
week. I would like to attract your attention that how innocent animal-Elephants
are brought in City and forced in BEGGING for food, Money etc. In city if police
are authorized to stop illegal vehicle, then why not police stopping elephant
to come in city limit creating traffic and risk to own life of elephants. We
have to Book elephant owner under prevention of animal cruelty act. Police dept
cannot carry sole responsibility; also it is duty of other ministry. More
important is Maharashtra Environment Minister Hon. Ganesh Naik belongs to same
locality. I expect some intervention from his dept also in this matter. All
media is showing news of such kind in remote part of India, but ignore what is
happening in city in front of them. As we all knew that few year back, in
Chembur, Mumbai one elephant died due to hit by BUS on road. We have to stop
this happening again. Request you to please take a small action to prevent
this.
