Maharashtra can begin racing bullocks again, a favourite sport in the interiors of the state. In an amendment made to the Prevention of Cruelty of Animals Act, 1960, on July 31, the state has revoked its ban on bullock cart racing imposed two years ago. In April, the legislature had cleared the bill aiming to amend the PCA Act.
