Sharing and signing petitions do help (in countries where the authorities would listen)!
Today, in a landmark judgement, the Honourable Bombay High Court ruled in favour of PETA India by upholding the implementation of the order dated 21 August 2012 that had been passed by the Joint Secretary (Forests), Government of Maharashtra to release the well-known and much-abused young elephant Sunder to a sanctuary.
India, steeped in Hinduism, is a country where kindness to animals is enshrined in their constitution. Kudos to this high court judge for upholding what is right and kudos to the voice of the people and PETA India!
