Can PIL be filed to take an order from court to free birds?


28-Jan-2023 (In Criminal Law)
I am a law student and i want to know about the scenario's legal point of view. SCENARIO:- A party was selling caged parrots (my question its legal or illegal to sell them? Publically or privately) I felt pitied on the plight of parrots so i thought to went on and purchase one cage With 10 parrots and free them. I asked the party the price of the cage (which included 10 parrots) they said 250₹ i said ok and i told them m gonna pay them n free the birds there so they help me acc. freeing the birds there at the stall one by one i freed them n afterwards when i was gonna pay them 250₹ they breached the earlier conversation and told me to pay 2500₹ (I paid them) What should i have done legally? And according to legal actions? I shouldn't have paid them a single penny n freed all the animals of the stall N they couldn't take any action against me because it's they who's commiting a crime and i m in the interest of justice? Or Should i file a PIL n take order frm court to free birds?

as per the Wild Life and Protection Act the selling of caged parrots are illegal. you can file PIL for getting order from your concerned high court to got free the birds. more over the selling of caged parrots is a offence
