Two bulls fight on road, one rams auto-rickshaw in between; video goes viral

Stray animals roaming freely on roads often become a threat to the lives of motorists and pedestrians. Sometimes they suddenly come in front of vehicles, and sometimes they start fighting among themselves in the middle of the road. A video of one such incident is going viral on social media, in which an auto-rickshaw gets caught in a fight between two bulls.

The video has been shared on the social media platform X. It shows two bulls locking horns fiercely in the middle of the road. Both were repeatedly ramming each other, which made conditions dangerous for passing vehicles.

Meanwhile, an auto-rickshaw arrives from behind. One bull pushed the other so hard that it slid back and crashed into the auto-rickshaw passing along the road. The driver had no chance to react.

The video further shows that after the auto-rickshaw is hit, the bull starts ramming it again and again. The vehicle shakes violently. Within moments it is badly damaged and nearly overturns. Clouds of dust are seen rising on the road. People nearby are frightened by the sight and move to a safe distance. Because of the bulls' aggressive behaviour, nobody dares to go near them.

According to the claim made along with the video, the auto driver was pinned under the bull. However, no firm information has emerged on how badly he was hurt or how he is now. The driver's condition has therefore not been officially confirmed.

The X user who shared the video, Aditya Yadav (@mradityaayadav), wrote in Hindi that the government should make a strict law on stray bulls and buffaloes in the country. According to him, these animals not only cause accidents but also do great damage to farmers' crops. He wrote that this video, too, shows how a poor auto driver's vehicle was wrecked and the driver was also pinned down.

The incident has revived discussion on the problem of stray animals on roads. Such animals are seen on city roads, in markets and on highways. They often suddenly come in front of vehicles, leading to accidents. In villages, too, they enter fields and destroy crops. Farmers and motorists alike have to cope with the problem.

For many drivers, a vehicle such as an auto-rickshaw is not just a means of travel but an important source of their family's livelihood. In such incidents, the vehicle is damaged and the driver's life is also at risk. The need to address the question of managing stray animals seriously is therefore being stressed.
