A poultry farm owner of Odisha’s Balasore has filed a complaint at the Nilagiri police station after 63 chickens of his farm died. The complainant, Ranjit Parida claims they died of suspected heart attack due to loud DJ music being played at his neighbour’s wedding procession, IndiaToday reported.

According to Ranjit, his neighbour’s wedding procession passed through his farm at around 11:30 pm on Sunday. He says as the “ear-splitting” music filled the neighbourhood, the chicken started behaving unusually with some of them jumping and hissing. He repeatedly requested his neighbours to lower the volume but no heed was paid, said Ranjit.
He later tried to revive them but in vain. He then took them to a veterinarian who diagnosed shock due to loud noise as the cause of deaths. Initially, Ranjit tried to settle the matter with his neighbour in exchange of compensation but the latter refused.

With no options left, he filed an FIR.
Ranjit, a 22-year-old engineering graduate unable to find a job started the farm with a bank loan.
The accused ridiculed the allegations and called it hogwash. However, he said that they lowered the volume after Ranjit’s request.
Police officials said the matter is being looked into but both the parties have resolved it amicably at the police station.
