'Stray cattle are not natural speed breakers': Supreme Court awards Rs 15 lakh compensation, seeks uniform policy - The Times of India
The Supreme Court has awarded Rs 15 lakh compensation to the widow of a man who succumbed to injuries after being attacked by a stray bull, while holding that victims of bovine-related accidents should not be left remediless merely because years have passed in litigation. Describing stray cattle on roads as a serious public safety issue, the Court called upon the Centre and States to evolve a comprehensive mechanism for compensating victims and preventing such incidents.
