Cow slaughter banned all over India except Kerala and W Bengal

[Guest guest]

from an American Hindu living in Illinois:

 

"I am championing a

cause called "Go-Samrakshana" with leading political leaders in

India. It means, as you may probably know, "protection of the cow".

All Indian states except Kerala and West Bengal have a ban on cow

slaughter, and I am lobbying to make this a national bill in Indian

parliament . Many top religious leaders have

vocally supported this cause started by India's top Hindu leader."

Why is killing cows still legal in Kerala and West

Bengal? I can only guess it has something to do with

the CPI-ML (Communist Party of India -

Marxist-Leninist) governments in those two states, not

because of substantial numbers of beef-eating

Christians and Muslims.

 

If I were living in India, I'd write my Congressman

(or should that be Lok Sabha-wallah and urge

passage of this bill.

Regarding Kerala, reasons I can think of are:

1. Communist party.

2. Strong political influence of christians and muslims.

3. People just don't care. Couple of months ago I was

there. I spoke to people about the general cruelty to

animals. Making them walk for miles and miles with no water

before killing them. Twisting their tail to make them get

up and walk when the exhauted cows try to sit down. Extreme

cruelty. Generally I got no response. People just politely

listened, that's all. They didn't disagree. I felt that

most people just don't care or care enough. That includes

hindus.

Are Communists famous for their beef-eating proclivites? It might also

have something more to do with the large Moslem populations in Kerala and

West Bengal, who eat beef.
