Police cadets applauding about all they have learned at the VSPCA training camps, many new concepts of humane kindness towards animals were presented to them as well as learning about existing India animal welfare laws.

Some of the issues raised by those in attendance, and addressed by VSPCA:

  • Illegal slaughtering of cattle happening in all rural sectors.
  • Cruel illegal transport.
  • The negligent attitude of the people regarding roadkill and non-removal of carcasses on National Highways.
  • Cruel methods of killing chickens.
  • Monkey menace in local villages.
  • Export of cow and cattle meat from the Hyderabad Region.
  • The protection to Indian wild birds.
  • Vegetarianism and diet

Excerpt from a letter from the Principal of the Police Training College, Anantapur, Andhra Pradesh:

In present day society preservation of bio-diversity, ecological balance is dire necessity for the survival of human being as well as all other living creatures. Because of man’s reckless ambition, pollution of different kinds is pervading the globe causing global warming, short fall in rain and submerging of Islands posing a serious threat to the quality of living conditions. As a result some species have gradually become extinct and some species are on the verge of extinct. In this regard some organizations all over the world have taken up the cause of protection of environment in general and care and protection of animals in particular. One of them is VSPCA.

At all the centres a volunteer pledge was undertaken by the cadets to do their best possible under any circumstances to help animals in distress and also try all possibilities to become vegetarian.
