Guest guest Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 Namaste Radheji,This blog was very disturbing. It moved me to tears. Thank you for this valuable information. In India, the situation is very different from that in US. Here almost everybody respects cows. The dairy industry is made up of large number of co-operative societies, which collect milk from rural house-holds. This adds extra income to these house-holds. People in the villages treat their animals just as their family members. There is still wide-spread usage of oxen/bulls in rural India. So that means the male calfs are spared. In many states of India, cow-slaughter is completely banned. Riots are known to break out when any cow is injured or killed by vested interests. Among the meat-eating Hindu population, only a very tiny minority eats beef. Here is the website of Amul and Nandini, two leading names of the dairy industry in India:http://www.amul.com/products.htmlhttp://www.kmfnandini.coop/html/aboutus.htmOne of my friends confirmed to me that cows are treated with love in the rural areas. This has brought back peace to my mind.Jai Shri Krishna India has a new look. Take a sneak peek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
