India, Aug. 1 -- The Supreme Court on Friday asked states and UTs to amend their laws to prevent stray cattle on roads and frame schemes to compensate pedestrians and motorists killed or injured in bovine attacks and accidents. The court noted that the presence of cattle on roads and highways must be prevented, adding that this is only possible if states enact laws or enforce existing regulations to hold owners accountable when cattle are left to graze in the open.
