Crazy Bullfighting in Mount Abu 25 May 2019

Bullfighting is not in an arena but on the busy main street of Mount Abu.

Bullfighting, Spain's national sport, is a prominent and expensive spectator activity. People in India can observe bullfighting in crowded market areas, on major roads, and in rural. Bullfighting in this country pits beast against the beast, with the populace at risk of being gorged to death or mortally injured when these beasts go insane. 

Locals and visitors alike watched a perplexing battle between two massive bulls that lasted about 25 minutes yesterday. Consider the scene when one bull was catapulted into the air and impaled on a guard railing on the side of the road. Someone alerted Abu authorities to the incident, and the town dispatched a JVC to remove the unhappy bull from the railing. They then took the bull to a veterinarian clinic for treatment.

We expect the Abu Municipal Corporation to capture these creatures and place them in specially constructed cages, but they seldom do so since no one steps forward to claim these strays. These stray cattle dig through the garbage cans in quest of food. They are a severe menace to the people as well as the hundreds of visitors that visit this hill region every year. It is past time for the government to make solid judgements and take decisive steps to put an end to this threat.

Mount Abu’s Growing Stench: A Sanitation Crisis Amidst Rain and Inaction

Mount Abu, known for its serene landscapes and clean mountain air, is facing an unprecedented health and hygiene crisis. A week-long strike by sanitation workers has transformed the town into an open garbage dump, and with the incessant monsoon rains, the situation has spiraled into a major public health threat.

For the past seven days, huge piles of trash have accumulated along roadsides, in the bustling market squares, and even near residential areas. The sanitation workers, who are locked in a standoff with municipal officials over internal disputes, refuse to work until their grievances are addressed. While the argument stays private, this impasse clearly affected the residents and visitors of Mount Abu.

If this deadlock persists, the situation will deteriorate further, and the foul odor of decomposing garbage will soon engulf the town. The process of recovering from this crisis and returning our streets to normal will not happen—it will require sustained effort.

While the administration works on resolving the bureaucratic challenge, it’s up to Abuites to step forward. We can’t afford to sit by and watch our beautiful hill station descend into filth. The people of Mount Abu can take a cue from northern hill stations, where locals take immense pride in keeping their surroundings clean. It is crucial for us to make a collective effort now more than ever to mitigate the growing hazards.

In a commendable move, the local administration has responded by rolling out wheeled garbage carts for easy disposal. The local administration’s response is admirable, as they have encouraged residents to use these facilities. But more needs to be done.

We are on the eighth day of the strike, and although the administration’s efforts are moving in the right direction, the clock is ticking. With cooperation from both residents and officials, we can hope for a swift resolution before the consequences of this crisis become irreversible.
