Animal Rights Activist Slams Donkey Use at NCP Protest
A video on the internet showed a donkey at a protest.
The donkey seemed to have black ink on its face.
A person who cares about animals saw the video.
He thought people were being unkind to the animal.
He said animals should be kept out of politics.
He asked a leader named Zeeshan Siddique to say sorry.
He said his group would protest and call the police if no one apologized.
Many people on the internet also said the donkey should not have been used.
No one has explained why the donkey was at the protest.
The leader has not said anything about the video yet.
Animal rights activist Vijay Rangare condemned the use of a donkey during a political protest by supporters of former NCP MLA Zeeshan Siddique.
A video shared on Instagram shows the donkey being paraded with what appears to be black ink smeared on its face.
Rangare urged Zeeshan Siddique to intervene and issue a public apology, warning of a peaceful protest and legal action if no action is taken.
Rangare said members of his organisation visited the protest site but found nobody there, and he plans to file a police complaint.
