(w.e.f. 1-4-2010).

As per section 3 of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960:

Duties of persons having charge of animals:

It shall be the duty of every person having the care or charge of any
animal to take all reasonable measures to ensure the well-being of such
animal and to prevent the infliction upon such animal of unnecessary
pain or suffering.

Indian Penal Code, 1860:

As per section 47:


"animal" denotes any living creature, other than a human being.

Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960:


3

As per section 2 (a):


"animal" means any living creature other than a human being.

As per the Carriage by Road Act, 2007:

Section 2: Definitions –
In this Act, unless the context otherwise requires:
(e) “goods” includes
(i) containers, pallets or similar articles of transport used to consolidate
goods and
(ii) animals or livestock.

Extracts of some Para’s of Supreme Court order dated 7.5.2014 in SLP (C)
No.11686 of 2007:

51. When we look at the rights of animals from the national and
international perspective, what emerges is that every species has an
inherent right to live and shall be protected by law, subject to the exception
provided out of necessity. Animal has also honour and dignity which
cannot be arbitrarily deprived of and its rights and privacy have to be
respected and protected from unlawful attacks.

52. Universal Declaration of Animal Welfare (UDAW) is a campaign led by


World Society for the Protection of Animals (WSPA) in an attempt to secure
international recognition for the principles of animal welfare. UDAW has
had considerable support from various countries, including India. WSPA
believes that the world should look to the success of the Universal
Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) to set out what UDAW can achieve for
animals. Five freedoms referred to in UDAW, which we will deal with in
latter part of the judgment, find support in PCA Act and the rules framed
thereunder to a great extent.

53. World Health Organization of Animal Health (OIE), of which India is a


member, acts as the international reference organisation for animal health
and animal welfare. OIE has been recognised as a reference organisation
by the World Trade Organisation (WTO) and, in the year 2013, it has a total
of 178 member countries. On animal welfare, OIE says that an animal is in
good state of welfare if (as indicated by Scientific evidence) it is healthy,
comfortable, well nourished, safe, able to express innate behaviour and if it
is not suffering from unpleasant states such as pain, fear and distress.
4

FREEDOM:

54. Chapter 7.1.2 of the guidelines of OIE, recognizes five internationally


recognized freedoms for animals, such as:

(i) freedom from hunger, thirst and malnutrition;

(ii) freedom from fear and distress;

(iii) freedom from physical and thermal discomfort;

(iv) freedom from pain, injury and disease; and

(v) freedom to express normal patterns of behaviour.

Food and Agricultural Organisation (FAO) in its “Legislative and Regulatory


Options for Animal Welfare” indicated that these five freedoms found their place
in Farm Welfare Council 2009 U.K. and is also called Brambell’s Five Freedoms.
These five freedoms, as already indicated, are considered to be the fundamental
principles of animal welfare and we can say that these freedoms find a place in
Sections 3 and 11 of PCA Act and they are for animals like the rights guaranteed
to the citizens of this country under Part III of the Constitution of India.

55. Animals are world-wide legally recognised as ‘property’ that can be


possessed by humans. On deletion of Article 19(1)(f) from the Indian Constitution,
right to property is more a fundamental right in India, this gives the Parliament
more a leeway to pass laws protecting the rights of animals. Right to hold on to a
property which includes animals also, is now only a legal right not a fundamental
right. We have also to see the rights of animals in that perspective as well.

56. Rights guaranteed to the animals under Sections 3, 11, etc. are only statutory
rights. The same have to be elevated to the status of fundamental rights, as has
been done by few countries around the world, so as to secure their honour and
dignity. Rights and freedoms guaranteed to the animals under Sections 3 and 11
have to be read along with Article 51A(g)(h) of the Constitution, which is the
magna carta of animal rights.

COMPASSION:

57. Article 51A (g) states that it shall be the duty of citizens to have compassion
for living creatures. In State of Gujarat v. Mirzapur Moti Kureshi Kassab Jamat
and Others (2005) 8 SCC 534, this Court held that by enacting Article 51A (g) and
giving it the status of a fundamental duty, one of the objects sought to be
achieved by Parliament is to ensure that the spirit and message of Articles 48 and
5

48-A are honoured as a fundamental duty of every citizen. Article 51A(g),


therefore, enjoins that it was a fundamental duty of every citizen “to have
compassion for living creatures”, which means concern for suffering, sympathy,
kindliness etc., which has to be read along with Sections 3, 11(1)(a) & (m), 22 etc.
of PCA Act.

HUMANISM:

58. Article 51A (h) says that it shall be the duty of every citizen to develop the
scientific temper, humanism and the spirit of inquiry and reform. Particular
emphasis has been made to the expression “humanism” which has a number of
meanings, but increasingly designates as an inclusive sensibility for our species.
Humanism also means, understand benevolence, compassion, mercy etc.
Citizens should, therefore, develop a spirit of compassion and humanism which
is reflected in the Preamble of PCA Act as well as in Sections 3 and 11 of the Act.
To look after the welfare and well-being of the animals and the duty to prevent the
infliction of pain or suffering on animals highlights the principles of humanism in
Article 51A (h). Both Articles 51A (g) and (h) have to be read into the PCA Act,
especially into Section 3 and Section 11 of the PCA Act and be applied and
enforced.

RIGHT TO LIFE:

62. Every species has a right to life and security, subject to the law of the land,
which includes depriving its life, out of human necessity. Article 21 of the
Constitution, while safeguarding the rights of humans, protects life and the word
“life” has been given an expanded definition and any disturbance from the basic
environment which includes all forms of life, including animal life, which are
necessary for human life, fall within the meaning of Article 21 of the Constitution.
So far as animals are concerned, in our view, “life” means something more than
mere survival or existence or instrumental value for human-beings, but to lead a
life with some intrinsic worth, honour and dignity. Animals’ well-being and
welfare have been statutorily recognised under Sections 3 and 11 of the Act and
the rights framed under the Act. Right to live in a healthy and clean atmosphere
and right to get protection from human beings against inflicting unnecessary pain
or suffering is a right guaranteed to the animals under Sections 3 and 11 of the
PCA Act read with Article 51A(g) of the Constitution. Right to get food, shelter is
also a guaranteed right under Sections 3 and 11 of the PCA Act and the Rules
framed thereunder, especially when they are domesticated. Right to dignity and
fair treatment is, therefore, not confined to human beings alone, but to animals as
well. Right, not to be beaten, kicked, over ridder, over-loading is also a right
recognized by Section 11 read with Section 3 of the PCA Act. Animals have also a
6

right against the human beings not to be tortured and against infliction of
unnecessary pain or suffering. Penalty for violation of those rights are
insignificant, since laws are made by humans. Punishment prescribed in Section
11(1) is not commensurate with the gravity of the offence, hence being violated
with impunity defeating the very object and purpose of the Act, hence the
necessity of taking disciplinary action against those officers who fail to discharge
their duties to safeguard the statutory rights of animals under the PCA Act.
