CM's Jallikattu event in Madurai cancelled due to protests
Tamil Nadu CM O Panneerselvam's Jallikattu event at Alanganallur in Madurai was called off as protesters picketed the venue on Sunday. They demanded a more "permanent solution" than the ordinance passed by the state government allowing the festival. "The government may...try to kill us. But we are not afraid," a protester said. Consequently, Panneerselvam had to fly back to Chennai.
