The condition of a bull is critical. The Nagar Nigam administration is plan- ning for the investigation soon after the arrival of Nagar Nigam Commissioner Premaranjan Singh. 5 cows died in the Gaushala at Baraula Bypass. Sick cows are being treated by veterinarians after the trau- matic event. Meanwhile, the death of two sick cows one by one has created tension in the Nagar Nigam office. The con- dition of a bull is critical. Treatment of some other sick cows is going on. Many municipal officials including Assistant Municipal Commissioner Raj Bahadur Singh went to the Gaushala and were busy fixing the arrangements there. From cleanliness to broken railings are being repaired. PNS !
