192 stray cows have died on highways in just three months. They wandered onto roads, unnoticed and unprotected, only to be hit by speeding vehicles. Yet, in the same country, so-called cow vigilantes have beaten and lynched human beings in the name of “protecting” these animals. This contradiction is both tragic and absurd. Stray cattle roam cities and highways not because of some grand conspiracy but because of negligence. Farmers, unable to afford their upkeep, abandon unproductive cows. Authorities turn a blind eye, and the animals end up on roads, causing accidents that take both human and animal lives. Where are the vigilantes then? Where is their outrage when these sacred animals starve, suffer, and die?
