Diary of a Gadhimai protester

[Catherine]

Quote: Even though the disgusting slaughter took place again, I really do believe that this will be the last time this event ever happens. The worldwide awareness of the cruel event has been growing and growing, to a point of no return. The public awareness and outcry surrounding this issue is not something that the Nepalese Government will be able to recover from, and it is going to continue to grow long before the next "5 year wait" is up.

I am glad you are back. I agree with you that this could be the last big sacrifice. I am glad you brought Gadhimai to our attention so we could be part of the protest in our own way.

I put a news alert on my phone so I would get information regularly.
I think it is important to be informed and to continue the pressure.

If all of us keep making our feelings known then we can keep the pressure on the Nepalese government. They will not want to lose tourist dollars. It may be for financial reasons that the sacrifice is stopped, but that is okay. It is a victory for the animals whose lives are spared no matter why they are spared.
