Tikiri's incident takes full coverage the world over -- humiliation to Sri Lanka
The incident where an attempt to take the female elephant named Tikiri to parade in the Kandy perahera in an inimical manner thus creating an uproar in social media recently has been phenomenal so as to hit the headlines in newspapers. uch of the reports published portray an opinion abhorring this issue.
What Sri Lankan authorities had said about this is Tikiri was made to parade the streets in the
perahera to complete a vow of Tikiri just once and though she is alright healthwise but because of a problem related to absorption of food she has emaciated this way. However, what foreign media report is the point of cruelty to animals circulated across social media. The reason behind this news is a non-governmental organisation yet internationally accepted organisation in Thailand called Save the Elephant Foundation spotlighting this as cruelty to animals.
