Theft of buffaloes is on the rise in UP. The latest victim now is BJP MLA Dharampal Singh from Awla. Thieves have taken away nine of his buffaloes from his farmhouse. This act of daring has, once again, raised serious questions for the UP government.
This has been reported in news18.com dated 24 June 2015.

As informed, Dharampal Singh has a resort in Siroli’s Gularia village under Bareilly district. There is a dairy in the farm and the thieves stole the buffalos after tying the caretaker of the farmhouse who doubles up as a guard as well.
