Cattle joining their own two footed brethren.

Cattle joining their own two footed brethren.

Walking on the road alone gives one sufficient time to think independently. That is why it is recommended that one should walk alone and that too long distances. Today during one such outing when I saw a herd on the road a sequence of thoughts started taking shape in my mind.

Firstly the cattle were at a place not meant for them and they were obstructing the traffic. But what then so were the two footed so called most elite and developed spices on earth doing at the Traffic signals.

When the court directed the Municipal corporation to ensure that the cattle nuisance is curbed we had a host of animal lovers joining the owners of the herd shouting their throat hoarse naming the act as an atrocity. Has anybody visited the neighborhood of these so called sympathizers of animals and seen how many animals are around.
It is very easy to lecture than to practice. Since the animals are endangering someone else’s life and property we are lectured on cruelty to animals. In fact it would be a sight to see the reaction of these very people when God forbid they or their loved ones are endangered.

Coming to Traffic, seeing the men women on two wheelers, auto Rikshas and cars creating a road block at the cross roads under the very nose of traffic cops one wonders why is the status of the uniform being allowed to tarnish. People are not just bothered about the presence of cops and keep violating the traffic rules. Keeping in mind the violators of traffic rules one is sure that even if the government doubles the numbers and directs these people in uniform to act as per law they will generate so much revenue that not only their salary but sufficient funds for installation of latest surveillance gadgets will be catered for.

In addition to this so many lives will be saved traffic will move faster and smoothly.
