FARM ANIMALS

Being passionate about farm animals- cows, sheep and goats and pigs – and their rescue from slaughter-she single handedly and for the first time in Tamil Nadu in the year2000 the RESCUE OF CATTLE FROM INTER- STATE CATTLE TRAFFICKING i.e. cattle going from Andhra Pradesh to Kerala for slaughter via Tamil Nadu was initiated by her. These cattle are illegally and brutally transported to Kerala for slaughter from Andhra. These rescues were done in late night hours on the highways -where in trucks loaded with cattle were seized, FIRs field and court cases fought to win permanent custody of the cattle but when finally, the attack from the butchers and their violence was far too difficult to face and these rescues had to stop. More than thousand cattle were rescued and looked after in the PFA shelter and two other gaushalas. The TN government in response to this cruelty exposed in interstate cattle trafficking constituted the State committee for the implementation of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act in 2002.

The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.
