Pandey who has also filed a complaint with the Sarnath police station, told ANI, "It feels like I've lost my child. Badshah has been with us since his birth. Don't have words to express my pain."

Badshah is not merely an animal for us, but like a family member, having access to our kitchen and bedroom.

"Badshah is not merely an animal for us, but like a family member having access to our kitchen and bedroom. Only objective behind announcing the reward is that the amount will attract those who have taken away the bull with them for selling purpose," Times of India quoted him as saying.
