BJP MP Varun Gandhi Slams Party for 'Cruelty' of Importing Cheetahs as 9 Die Within Months

BJP MP Varun Gandhi criticized his own party for importing cheetahs from Africa and allowing 9 to die in India, calling it "cruelty" and "negligence".

He said India should focus on conserving its own endangered species rather than contributing to cheetahs' suffering.

This was Gandhi's latest attack on his party after earlier joking about not knowing when someone would become CM.

20 cheetahs have been reintroduced in India since last year, but 9 died within 5 months, raising concerns.

Gandhi said the "reckless pursuit of exotic animals must end" and native wildlife welfare should be prioritized instead.
