Target: Balendra Shah, Prime Minister of NepalGoal: End the inhumane practices at the Gadhimai Festival and hold accountable those involved in alleged brutality against animals. The Gadhimai Festival in Nepal has resulted in the horrific slaughter of tens of thousands of animals every five years under the guise of tradition. The time has come to demand an end to this violence in the name of tradition. Reports indicate that animal welfare advocates face intimidation and violence when they attempt to intervene or document these acts. We respectfully urge you to take decisive action to end the practices at the Gadhimai Festival, enforce stronger laws protecting animals, and hold accountable those involved in the alleged acts of cruelty.
