Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Sukhvinder Sukhu triggered a row after he participated at an event in Shimla where ‘wild chicken,’ a protected species under the Wildlife Protection Act of 1972, was reportedly served on the dinner menu. The incident came to light after a purported video was shared by an animal welfare organisation. The incident has led to widespread condemnation from animal rights groups and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), demanding an apology and action against those responsible.
