The Supreme Court on Jan 10,2013 Thursday permitted the Tamil Nadu Government to
conduct jallikattu from January 15 in accordance with the law enacted by
it and rules framed for regulation of the event.
A Bench of Justices K.S. Radhakrishnan and Dipak Misra in a brief order also made it clear that the event should be conducted strictly in terms of orders passed by the apex court from time to time.
The 2009 Act passed by the State provides that no jallikattu event will be permitted or held without the written permission of the District Collector. It should be sought and obtained at least a month prior to the event. Jallikattu events can take place only in about 180 places identified and notified in the gazette (subject to additions and deletions). The Collectors shall ensure that animals participating in the jallikattu and related events are registered and conditions imposed for the exhibition and participation of the animals implemented and followed by those organising the events and the owners of the registered animals.
