Exercising powers under Section 144 of the CrPC, Fazilka DC Senu Duggal has ordered a complete ban on the sale, purchase and use of cobra/barbed fence in the district. The orders will remain in force until October 8.
The DM said that barbed fence was being used by farmers to protect their crops. However, it was posing a threat to the life of cattle as it is very tense.
The DM added that 90 per cent of cattle in the district’s largest animal hospital in Abohar’s Daulatpura village and open sanctuary area were under treatment after being injured due to the cobra/barbed fence. Therefore, a complete ban was ordered on its sale, purchase and use.
