The Supreme Court (SC) has established a new standard for compensation in cases of death caused by stray livestock, especially against the backdrop of an increase in such incidents across the country. In an unprecedented case, the court awarded the family of a man who died in 2007 after being attacked by a bull in Punjab, compensation amounting to 1.5 million rupees.
The judicial panel, comprising judges Sanjay Karol and N. K. Singh, emphasized that government bodies cannot evade responsibility towards citizens who are injured or killed due to stray animals. Consequently, the court mandated all states to develop rules for creating a compensation payment mechanism in the event of accidents involving cattle, regardless of whether the victim was a pedestrian or a vehicle driver.
Furthermore, the court required the government to take measures to control stray animals and to take appropriate action against owners who leave their animals on streets and highways.
