Speaking with the media persons at Udupi press club, Deviprasad Shetty President of Aikala Bava Kambala Committee said that buffalo race also called in Tulunadu “Kambala which is a popular traditional folk sport in undivided districts having more than 1200 years history. It is been held also in Kasargod district of Kerala State. It had been in existence since the time of various rulers like Alupa dynasty, Tippu Sultan and others. There had been references of Kambala in the stone inscriptions found in Barkur, Udupi, Kollur and Sringeri.
There were nearly 50 Kambalas in undivided districting. The Department of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Sciences banned int in Udupi District on 15tj November and in Dakshina Kannada District on November following objections raised by the Animal Welfare Board of India. The ban on Kambala was based on a misconception of the sport which did not involve any cruelty to the buffaloes.
Shetty also said that both state and central governments should convince the Animal Welfare Board of India regarding the ban on Kambala and should declare Kambala as a folk and rural sport. The Kambala committee has also written to the Animal Welfare Board of India and is planning to approach the court if needed.
Around 200 fairs of Buffaloes and nearly 25,000 people including farmers from different parts of the three districts would participate in the protest in Mangaluru on Saturday as per the protest organizers, said Deviprasad Shetty.
