A spokesman of the Sabha said he noticed some cows dropping dead after consuming fodder. “Slowly more animals started dying. It was then that we decided to inform the police. It’s for the police to see whether there’s foul play or not,” he said.

SSP Ashwini Gotyal said, “We are trying to establish whether these were poisoned or they died after some people might have inadvertently fed them with pesticide-laced fodder. Samples have been sent to the laboratory.”
