The Punjab & Haryana High Court has expressed concern about increasing litigation under the Haryana Gauvansh Sanrakshan and Gausamvardhan Act, observing that the objective of the Act was to curtail the "consumption of beef menace emanating from the powerful meat lobby consuming and selling beef" but State is not executing properly. The Court rejected the anticipatory bail plea of the accused who was apprehending arrest for allegedly being the owner the pick up vehicle used for carrying the cows for slaughtering. Justice Sandeep Moudgil said, "The prime objective of Haryana Gauvansh Sanrakshan and Gausamvardhan Act 2015 is to curtail the cow slaughtering, consumption of beef menace emanating from powerful meat lobby consuming and selling beef for their own satiation. The petitioner Khalid had filed the anticipatory bail plea under sections 148, 149, 186,429,307 of IPC and Sections 13, 17 of the Haryana Gauvansh Sanrakshan and Gausamvardhan Act 2015 and Section 25 of the Arms Act 1959, registered at Faridabad's Dhauj.
