The point has been raised that the Almviks farm is below the standards of

ISKCON

law because it has never filed quarterly cow protection reports with the

Ministry of Cow Protection and Agriculture -- as required by ISKCON Law 507.

 

Now that Mayapur has managed to evade the stop-breeding recommendation of

ISKCON's Mininstry of Cow Protection and Agriculture, I can't help but wonder

--

has Mayapur managed to stay current with its quarterly cow protection reports?

Are they properly completed?

 

Also, what about Vrndavana -- have they made any effort to meet the standards

required by ISKCON law with regard to the timely filing of quarterly cow

protection reports?

 

Just wondering.

 

your servant,
