Boiled Potatoes - Now in yellow pages!

When you run out of cartage and bond papers, you use whatever you find. That's how yellow map-litho came to play!

 I know that I haven't posted anything in a while but trust me, there has been nothing! But what I am gonna post this time is has a story.

 So we were asked to make a presentation on a social issue.The topic that my group took was ,'Violence Against Stray Animals'.

 I wanted to take a topic like female rights or poverty but I guess I was not supposed to take anything mainstream!

 So we started collecting data on this topic. While collecting data I came across this article that read,'Say NO to Kerala'. According to this article Kerala killed around 300 dogs each day for around 6 days! The purpose is to promote tourism. So if you go to Kerala for sightseeing, you will end up having the blood of many innocent stray dogs on your hands.

 There was this quote that I really Liked - 'They belong where they were born.'
You can't kill so many innocent animals to fill your pockets. There are laws against killing any stray animal in India. Nevertheless it is one inhuman thing.

After giving presentation on this topic, I just had to sketch some dogs. Here is one of them.

 This is it for now but ill keep more coming. Meanwhile if you want to support the dogs of Kerala, here's  a link - http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/boycott-kerala-tourism-to-save-animal-slaughter/

It is a petition against Kerala Tourism. Just sign the petition if you care for the innocent stray animals. It needs around 100,000 signatures to move to the court. So support the cause.
