Five ways to end Jallikattu protests

Protests for organising Jallikattu in Tamil Nadu has spread like wildfire in the state and also reached the national capital, Delhi. If not controlled soon, the peaceful protests can lead to a major law and order problem. The protests across Tamil Nadu and in Delhi are led mostly by the youth and they have decided they won’t give up unless the ban on the 2000-year-old sport is not removed. The Supreme Court had first banned the use of bulls for Jallikattu in 2014. The Centre on January 7 issued a gazette notification allowing the use of bulls for the sport on the condition that the animals are not subjected to cruelty.
