Tiger at Binkadakatti zoo adopted

To celebrate their leader’s birthday in a meaningful way, fans and followers of Law Minister H.K. Patil have adopted a tiger at the Binkadakatti zoo in Gadag.

On Tuesday, as a means of celebrating Mr. Patil’s 70th birthday, the former zilla panchayat president Siddalingeshwar Patil, Murugesh Badni, Andanappa Bingi and Kartik Gujmagadi formally adopted the tiger at the zoo.

Deputy Conservator of Forest of Gadag Deepika Bajpai handed over the adoption letter to the four in the presence of the Minister.
