Jallikatu, a 3500 year old controversial bull taming sport, was coming up for a hearing in The Supreme Court of India. A divided case of Local Tradition versus Urban Activism. Times spotted this opportunity to embed itself into the local culture and chose to bring this issue out of the courtrooms and into the online public space in the world's largest democracy. An online platform to encourage public debate on this burning issue of human might versus animal rights. OVER 2.3 MILLION VOTES were registered and The Supreme Court Of India allowed the event to Run across India.
