Vikramaditya Panshikar has tied fluorescent reflective belts around the necks of stray cattle which are loitering on the main roads in Pernem. Speaking to The Goan, Panshikar said their group has started the initiative from December 2016. "With the help of my friends Sandeep Haldankar and Rajendra Samant, I tied reflective belts around the necks of about 300 stray cattle that were loitering along the NH17 at Pernem.
