On Monday evening, a farmer in Bhadiara village experienced a terrifying incident when a stray bull attacked him while he was working in his fields. The injured individual, identified as 45-year-old Naresh Kumar, suffered severe fractures in both his arm and leg. He was promptly transported to Tanda Medical College for medical attention, where he is currently receiving treatment.

According to family members, Naresh was gathering fodder when the bull charged at him unexpectedly. His cries for help alerted nearby villagers, who rushed to assist him and, after considerable effort, managed to drive the bull away.

Kamlesh Dhiman, a local social worker, expressed concern over the increasing problem of stray cattle in the region. He stated, “Aggressive bulls are often seen roaming freely in fields and on roads, causing fear among children and the elderly who hesitate to leave their homes.”

In light of this incident, residents are calling on local authorities and the Animal Husbandry Department to take swift action to capture stray animals and relocate them to gaushalas. Villagers warned that without prompt measures, such incidents could escalate into more serious tragedies.
