DC while talking to media have informed that there have been several complaints and media reports that the locals denizens are facing difficulties in national highway and other road in and around the capital complex. These stray cattle also pose serious threat to the commuters and are source of road accidents.

He further requested the denizens of capital complex to cooperate with the district administration and to refrain from letting their pet animals and cattle out in the open which result in various nuisance like traffic problem, unhygienic atmosphere etc.

The number of these stray animals has been increasing constantly, and despite repeated requests of the local residents, the administration has failed to tackle this problem. Most of the stray animals remain present in vegetable and fruit markets, meat shops and been freely wandering on national highway and other arterial and sector roads. A youth leader informed.

The dumping of garbage on the road sides on main road, and the overflowing garbage bins in residential localities have proved happy hunting ground for animals. These animals converge here to rummage through the vegetable wastes dumped on the road sides. A former IMC councilor said.
