Cattle rearing is practised in the outskirts of the Capital for milk production. But in the long run, owners, farmers and milkmen from the fringes of the Valley often discard unproductive or ill cows, oxen, bulls and calves on the urban streets. Newly born male calves are separated from the mother cow or buffalo and abandoned to wander about on the city roads. Such reckless acts of cattle owners have led to increase in the number of stray cattle in urban areas.
