Just like Tamil Nadu, even in Andhra
Pradesh, court orders were defied and cock fights took place. Most of
these fights happened in Coastal Andhra. Now a shocking news is more
than 500 Crores was transacted in past two days due to this cock fights.
A report said, more than 5000 Cocks have died in Godavari district
alone.
But above all, the biggest
problem was the fake currency which was used. Most of them who were
betting on cock fights tried to peddle fake currency notes at the cash
counters.
Recently this cock fight was
banned, but as Tamil Nadu conducted Jallikattu despite ban, the same was
done in Andhra Pradesh. The organizers were clever this year and this
time they had UV lamps to detect the fake currency.
These
fake note detecting machines were used in places like Bhimavaram and
Vempa in West Godavari. Despite all those measures, it was said a huge
chunk of money was labelled as 'Fake'. Police and media never made this
issue a big one so far.
