No proposal to repeal anti-cow slaughter Act, says Karnataka Minister

The Hindu  

Despite the Karnataka government stating that there is no proposal to repeal the anti-cow slaughter Act of 2020, since the pros and cons are still under discussion, the Opposition BJP, seeking a firm commitment from the State government, stalled the Legislative Council proceedings on July 5, accusing the government of allowing illegal cow slaughter in the State. Referring to Animal Husbandry Minister K. Venkatesh’s statement in Mysuru earlier, BJP member N. Ravikumar, in the Legislative Council, sought a firm reply from the Minister during the Question Hour and alleged that “thousands of cows” had been illegally slaughtered recently while no action had been taken. However, BJP members took exception to the Minister’s earlier statement where he had asked what was wrong in cow slaughter when buffaloes were being slaughtered. I had made a general statement about the issue.” ‘Politics for votes’ A war of words broke out between the ruling and Opposition benches after BJP members insisted on a statement from the Minister.
