No idea, shootinf rats comes under pest control I guess. They destroy agricultural grains to a huge proportion, what does our lady Maneka have to say on this not sure, perhaps she wants Indians to gather all the rats / mice and leave it at her doorstep.

They used to be on Schedule V (Vermin - no licence required to kill) of the Wildlife Protection Act 1972. However, I am not sure if they still are.

What BS! I recall she had problems with the snakebite serum production unit in Pune too.Reminds me of this episode in South Park about stupid animal lovers.

Bandicoots are a common pest at farms and are known to siphon off food grains.Don't see any harm in killing them.There's a certain community of people in Karnataka who smoke them out of their holes and eat them!
