A 24-year-old youngster from Candolim lost his life near a popular restaurant in Naikavaddo, Calangute after he tried to save stray cattle squatting in the middle of the road, fell off his bike, sustained severe head injuries and started bleeding profusely. Now, when will the government really wake up and start imposing hefty fines against the owners of such stray cattle in the state for casually leaving them on roads (which includes all national highways) to loiter around to eat garbage & for making innocent people to die in such type of serious freaky road accidents in different parts of Goa? I think that the government should stop taking things lightly to play its own cow politics and instead should not just impose hefty fines on the owners of such stray animals but also keep a team of trained people to impound them to send them to some private-run 'gaushalas' and if possible should make the owners of these stray animals to compulsorily pay compensation to family of those dying in tragic road accidents due to their cattle to finally teach them a hard lesson.
