As ban on Jallikattu is making headlines across the country, another sport - Kodipandayam (cockfight) - banned by the Supreme Court over animal cruelty is being organised openly in Andhra Pradesh during Makar Sankranti. Kodipandayam (cockfight) was banned by the top court to stop cruelty to birds and gambling associated with the "recreational sport". The three-day Sankranti festival saw thousands participating in duels organised by politicians, NRIs and others at huge fairs.
