NEW DELHI: Supreme Court on Tuesday dismissed a plea filed by People for Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) against the Karnataka high court order which had held that Kambala and bull races in Karnataka cannot be restricted to the coastal districts of Dakshina Kannada and Udupi. The appellant sought to challenge this.A bench of justices Vikram Nath and Sandeep Mehta refused to interfere with the HC order and raised questions over why the bull races should be confined to certain areas. “They want to showcase the culture in different parts of the state; what is wrong? Let people in other parts of the state be also familiarised with the culture. Why restrict it to a particular area only?” it said.It was contended that the other places had no traditional or cultural association with the sport, and the events were being organised solely for commercial reasons, however the plea was rejected.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideosUAE Ambassador Slams Tehran Strikes, Says India’s Voice ‘Carries Weight’ In West Asia‘Iran’s New Leader Won’t Live In Peace’, Says Trump; Tehran warns ‘Beware, Lest You Be Eliminated’’Om Birla Perfected Art Of Turning Off Microphones Of Oppn MPs’: Explosive Mahua Moitra In Lok SabhaPost-Operation Sindoor, India Formalises Its Military Transformation Blueprint With Vision 2047’There’s Only One Leader Who…’: Priyanka’s Counter-Attack On Rijiju’s ‘Hug And Wink’ Dig At RahulAsaduddin Owaisi Questions Legality Of Speaker Role During No-Confidence Motion In Lok SabhaGaurav Gogoi Targets Kiren Rijiju Over Interruptions, Amit Shah Hits Back With ‘Irresponsible’ Jibe’Is Rahul Gandhi Above Speaker?’ Kiren Rijiju Slams Opposition During Motion Against Om BirlaCentre Invokes Essential Commodities Act To Regulate LPG Supply Amid Iran War’Baseless’: BJP MP Ravi Shankar Prasad Blasts KC Venugopal’s ‘Constitutional Vacuum’ Charge123PhotostoriesMeet Marta Ortega Pérez: The billionaire heiress redefining the Zara empireHow to make Street-Style Chowmein at home10 countries with the most cultural influence in the worldLPG Gas Cylinder Shortage: 7 popular gas-stove dishes you can make in a microwaveRashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda’s Pradhanam-Mehendi festivities were a kaleidoscope of couture and tradition | See photosHow Sanju Samson’s father shaped him from a young cricketer to T20 World Cup hero – Meet his familyFake turmeric powder in the market?
