NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Protests by thousands of people demanding the resumption of a traditional Indian bull-taming festival have disrupted daily life across the southern state of Tamil Nadu, forcing its leader to urge intervention by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Protesters want the federal government to reverse a Supreme Court ban on "jallikattu", a hazardous rite in which youths and men wrestle rampaging bulls, and have made a request to Modi to permit it.
