MGP has been receiving calls from the people who have been bitten by neighbourhood dogs or gored by neighbourhood cattle. They have had to incur medical expenses, some times heavy, as a result. This is how they can get relief for the suffering they have been through.
If talking with the owners of the animals does not produce any results, one should file a police complaint detailing the medical expenses and asking the police to file a case under Sec. 289 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860.
289. Negligent conduct with respect to animal: Whoever knowingly or negligently omits to take such order with any animal in his possession as is sufficient to guard against any probable danger to human life, or any probable danger of grievous hurt from such animal, shall be punished with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to six months, or with fine which may extend to one thousand rupees, or with both.
If you pursue the matter with the police vigorously, you can get reimbursed for your expenses.
