Himachal govt allows killing of blue bulls [1]

Continuous damage to standing crops due to intrusions by blue bulls (nilgai) in several villages in the Shivalik foothills has forced the state government to relax the norms and allow killing of the animal. The permission will apply only to the areas falling under the forest divisions of Una, Bilaspur, Nurpur (Kangra), Paonta and Nalagarh.
