Rashami Desai on animal cruelty

Actor Rashami Desai recently shared her thoughts on the topic of animal abuse, through her official social media handle. The actor put up a post about pet owners who do not care about their pets and treat them in a wrong manner. In the note, Rashami Desai wrote that the people who abandon their pets or ill-treat them by taking out all the frustration on them must be dealt with in the legal way.

She wrote that these people must be sent to prison at least for three months and should also be asked to pay a certain amount as a penalty. In the end, she also gave the story a funny twist as she demanded that these people should be sent to China as a punishment. The actor also added a ‘thunder’ emoticon, indicating that she was furious about such behaviour. Have a look at the story on Rashami's Instagram here.

The prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act of 1960 states that certain cruel actors against the animals can invite a fine and imprisonments up to three months. The fine for animal cruelty in India is considered to be low as offenders are only charged ₹50 and in case of a second offence, they have to pay an amount which is not less than ₹25. The gravity of this offence has been a notion of debate amongst the people for quite some time now.
