AMRITSAR: After facing losses for the past consecutive two years owing to coronavirus pandemic-induced restrictions, the sacrificial animal dealers in Amritsar are reaping windfalls with the high demand for sheep and goats not only from Punjab but also from neighbouring Jammu and Kashmir Union Territory (JKUT).
"There is so much demand that no sacrificial goat or sheep is available less than Rs 15,000 in the market," said a livestock dealer Aamdeen. He said past two years there wasn’t any significant demand and they had to suffer huge losses.
