The Mumbai civic body cracked down on goat-sellers ahead of Eid-al-Adha for alleged violation of norms and seized 134 goats from temporary markets in the last four days, an official said on Tuesday.
"We are taking action if it is found that goats are being brought to the city directly from farms without making the mandatory entry in the Deonar abattoir. A few goat dealers violated rules by not paying Rs 169 per goat to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC)," said the assistant municipal commissioner, market department, BMC.
