    What about cow, cattle, chicken,pig slaughtering in the name of food?
    What about cow, cattle sacrificing in the name of Eid? Why animal welfare board not find it as cruelty? Is it not comes under violence?

    Kambala is part of Tulunadu Culture and is held for centuries. It should not be banned but could be regulated. But cockfight where sharp knives are tied and cocks die is fit to be banned, but still held regularly in Tulunadu and also in Bombay. What about Jallikattu in Tamil Nadu and Bull fights in Italy and other European countries. The Kambala could be retained as part of our culture but violence to the animal could be regulated.

    No... make 'Kiss of Love' as part of kambala. Let all people, who oppose 'kiss of Love', kiss the buffelos, which are beaten mercilessly.

    Shame on them who pressurizing govt/court on banning Kambala ,these are the people who goes to foreign (Spain)countries and pay and watch Bull fights where bull has been murdered in front of thousands, and cheer by claping and get millions of dollar as prize money.
    In kambala buffelo has been worshiped as god and have been taken care like their children.

    If kambala is banning subject then what abt bullock cart? horse tangawala? slaughtering animals to gods? then field farming is also a cruelty on animals.
    the point here is people who do not know ABCD of kambla who involved in banning such a traditional game. which is not accepted atall.

    Rediculous. Court or State has no business in interfering in our culture or life. Islam is honoured here, Christianity is also. Zoroastrians are respected and provided with govt support including all religions which is not native to India. The Kambla the original folk sport of Dravidian the original inhabitites of India or Indus culture are stopped for following their culture. Are Tuluvasd part of India? do we need a seperate state. or country to live our culture ? north Indians and western influence makes us lumpents. I dont see any cruelty to animals. The court or the Animal welfare board doesnt sees cruelty in butcher shop where cows, bulls, pigs goats and chicken been slaughtered. The authorities doesn't sees the Halal as cruelty.I f they want to ban Kambala they need to stop all like killing of animal for eating or sacrifice ( for all religions ) . Zoos everything including walking on grass or road where inscects comes under our feet. Tell the Animal welfare guys to look after a pair of buffellos how Kambala lovers looks after.

    Ban Ram sene and other senes instead Kumbala and Korikatta. Korikatta is some thing torturing the bird.We can`t bear a prick of needle how the rooster has to bear the cuts by razer.
    Torturing those in love is torture the worst one
    . It is like killing mating deers.

    It is actually "Cummy & Congi" combination against Hindu rituals. If possible you stop supporting them..

    Rama Sene DOES NOT need your support, but it is the same Rama Sena supporting Hindu rituals like Kola, Kambala & Kori Katta....

    Thank God. Poor Animals not meant for race rather to work are saved.

    Myself I have seen the violence. Advocating as looking after them like kids after Kambala is just hypocrisy.

    Kambla is one of the entertain game and there may be some cruelness upon animals. But, The owner of the bfellow's take care these animals like their children. Instead of that Court should ban on the criminals like moral policing and anti social elements.

    Instead of increasing penalty for rape and domestic violence they have banned a traditional sport....Finally I think People have to make Indoor Kambala Arrangements in Swimming pool and lock the door for Anybody other than invitees.
