Ban Tamil Nadu's jallikattu: Hema Malini

On behalf of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) India, veteran actor Hema Malini has sent a letter to minister of environment and forests, Jairam Ramesh, urging him to take immediate steps to end the cruel tradition of jallikattu. The letter comes just days before the Supreme Court hearing regarding PETA India's petition calling for the Tamil Nadu Regulation of Jallikattu Act No 27 of 2009, a state law that permits jallikattu, to be struck down.
