The Delhi High Court has today allowed the Federation of Indian Animal Protection Organization (FIAPO) and People for the Ethical Treatment of Animal (PETA) to be a part of the physical survey conducted as directed by the Delhi HC to Animal Welfare Board of India.

The Delhi High Court today slammed the Animal Welfare Board of India for not performing a systematic survey of the animal circuses and directed them again to conduct a physical survey themselves or send the State Animal Husbandry Boards at the registered circuses.

A student from Mumbai has written to the Chief Justice of India requesting a ban on animals being kept in Zoo and Circus, suggesting that they be released in Jungles, wildlife sanctuaries and National Parks to enable them to live in their natural habitat.
