Cockfights are the first thing that comes to mind if the topic is about Sankranthi season. Not only from Telangana, People from neighboring States visit Andhra during this festival period for betting on their favourite roosters.

Since few years, It has become regular practice that permission was granted for a 3-day period violating the court order. This time, State Government decided to offer its consent much in advance. May be, This could be due to the Jallikattu affect!

AP Home Minister Nimmakayala Chinna Rajappa officially announced Cockfights are permitted for the Sankranthi festival lasting for three days. At the same time, He stressed the need for respecting the law apart from continuing the traditions.

For the coming Sankranthi, Cockfights gonna be held on a massive level as Home Minister himself offered a green signal. People have already reached the conclusion that there willn't be any harm in continuing the tradition for two more days. But, How will Courts react on it?
