However, taking note of the concern explained by the petitioner, refrained from doing so, and grant liberty to the petitioner to give suggestions to the authorities.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Liberty is granted to the petitioner to conduct an appropriate study of the entire issue and submit his suggestions to the authorities who shall consider the same and examine the feasibility of such implementations, it said.<\/p>\n<p>According to the petitioner, permitting cattle grazing along the national and state highways has led to many road accidents.<br \/>\n&#8220;If the authorities concerned take action to prevent such illegal grazing on the highways, it would prevent accidents to a great extent which also endanger the lives of the cattle,&#8221; the petitioner submitted.<br \/>\nWhen the authorities collect user fee for such roads, they are duty-bound to prevent such cattle straying and protect the commuters using the highways, he added.<br \/>\nHe also submitted that as per provisions of the National Highways Act whoever commits mischief by doing any act which renders such highways less safe for travelling shall be punished.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chennai:\u00a0The Madras High Court has issued notice to the Tamil Nadu government and the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) on a PIL against cattle menace on highways.
