Hyderabad High Court served notices to the Government of AP and Telangana along with Poultry Industry over killing of unwanted chickens.
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) India moved a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) in the High Court seeking directions to the poultry industry for stopping the practice of killing male or unwanted chickens.
Generally, Chickens used for meat are bred to have fleshier upper bodies. And the Chickens preferred for eggs are bred to deliver excess number of eggs. Poultry Industry considers male chicks useless as they could neither lay eggs nor can be used for meat. So, They will be killed mercilessly.
PETA is now fighting to prevent the killing of male or unwanted chickens. What will be the conclusion of this legal battle?
