Protest launched demanding cattle underpass at Chombala
The protesters urged the authorities to construct a CUP near the Chombala block office, citing concerns that access to the Government Veterinary Hospital and the mini stadium would be cut off once the NH construction was completed.
A protest was initiated in Chombala, Kozhikode, on August 4, demanding the construction of a cattle underpass on the national highway. Janakeeya Prakshobha Samithi spearheaded the rally near the Chombala mini stadium. Authorities were urged to build the CUP near the block office, as access to the Government Veterinary Hospital and mini stadium would be obstructed post-construction.
The veterinary hospital, adjacent to the block office, is frequently visited by individuals from Azhiyur, Onchiyam, Eramala, Chorode, and Mahe, who transport cattle, other livestock, and domestic birds for medical treatment. The protest commenced with the inauguration of a pandal by Vadakara block panchayat president Kottayil Radhakrishnan.
