Issues on cattle trade will be resolved soon: Harsh Vardhan

New Delhi: The issues related to the notification on cattle trade, which was stayed by the Madras High Court, will be resolved soon, Union environment minister Harsh Vardhan said on Monday.

He said the government was looking into the matter. The government will notify specific clauses of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act that deal with sale and purchase of cattle from markets for slaughter afresh.

“We are studying the whole thing rationally and very soon the matter will be solved,” Mr Vardhan told reporters, flanked by newly-appointed minister of state for environment Mahesh Sharma.
