Jallikatu a traditional festival celebrated with full of spirituality in southern part of India specially in Tamil Nadu. It is a festival which is celebrated at the time of pongal. Thousands of people took part in festival and enlighten the spirituality. But same where it is violating the constitutional laws . The festival jalikattu means tie up jali (coins ) into the horns of katu (ox). People used to play a game where most of the people used to harsh the animals . It is kind of play where people took these animals into the crowd and attack them with niddles and stones. They hit them till the time animal doesn't started running outside. Once all done ,they used to play a game to tie up the bundle of coins into the horns of running ox.
Well it is a Hindu festival, but that doesn't means a bull ,ox or any other animals do not have life. This kind of act shows the inhumanity , uncivilization too. This is directly abolishing the article 21 that says equality of life.
Now Supreme Court has taken the final step banning this dangerous game of the festival .But still after banning Jalikattu there are few incidents have taken place in Tamil Nadu. Government has to take a special action towards the issue that it should not rewind the act of inhumanity.
