New York mayor, other leaders push to ban horse-drawn carriage rides after Indian teen's death

The death of 18-year-old Indian tourist Romanch Mahajan, who fell from a runaway horse-drawn carriage in Central Park, has intensified calls to ban the attraction in New York City. The Central Park Conservancy and animal rights groups argue for suspending the industry until safety measures improve, while carriage owners deny allegations of mistreatment and advocate for better protections instead.
