Lucknow: The Lucknow zoo authorities today received another sad back after they have lost their alone Rhinoceros ‘Lohit’ at its premises after a long brief illness.

The 35-year-old rhino, named Lohit, was a major draw at the zoo and was its inmate since the last 20 years.

Lohit shot into infamy in 1995 when it killed the zoo vet and later also killed a youth who accidentally entered its enclosure after his kite fell inside.

Doctors at the zoo told media persons that the rhino had given up eating for the past one week and despite their best efforts died in the afternoon.

Several vet consultants from the Central Zoo Authority (CZA) and the Indian Veterinary Research Institute (IVRI) had come to supervise his treatment, but all efforts failed.

He was brought to the Lucknow zoo on April 6, 1995.

“People are calling and telling me about atrocities being done to them, their villages and shops are being demolished. One should not lose hope, there’s no need to worry. We’ll face it with patience but will never raze a home,” Owaisi said, according to ANI.

 

 

 

He even warned PM Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah and the BJP govt at the Centre that the Indian Muslims will never bow to such atrocities.

“Listen, Modi and Amit Shah. We will not bow before you. We are those who bow before Allah. Allah is enough for us,” Owaisi said as he recounted the recent incident of Khargone in Madhya Pradesh.
