I
have no desire to be controversial, only a desire to be rational. Some
might say "You should respect the feelings of majority!" my only answer is
"I respect feelings of everybody, but I refuse to respect stupidity."
I am totally against the ban on cow slaughter, not because I like to eat beef! But, only because there is no ground of rationality in banning beef.
I went through this Article 48 which says slaughter of Cow is prohibited in Constitution of India, but not on religious grounds, but on Agriculture and Animal farming perspective. Here is the Statement:
Article 48 in The Constitution Of India 1949
48. Organization of agriculture and animal husbandry The State shall endeavour to organise agriculture and animal husbandry on modern and scientific lines and shall, in particular, take steps for preserving and improving the breeds, and prohibiting the slaughter, of cows and calves and other milch and draught cattle.
#NOTE Not everything in the Constitution is sensible.
NOW!
90% of the world eats beef. Are they all rakshasi and
sinners ? Are those countries growing poor economically??
*Ban on beef with regard to Agriculture and Animal farming (Article 48)
is nothing but only stupidity! let me give you one example "America produces the maximum milk and the maximum beef. So both can go together!"
*India will suffer a lot in days to come! specially the
farmers, due to the ban on slaughter, farmers are unable to dispose of
their old bullocks, making it tougher for them to buy a new pair.
Selling old bullocks for slaughter got them the margin money to buy a
new pair. With the ban there are no takers for older bullocks any more.
Farmers used to fetch around Rs 10,000 by selling the old pair, which
provided some cushion for buying a new one. With the ban, nobody dares
buy an aged animal, which has hit business hard. This ban is going to
pay a very bad economic impact in the country!
If it is only banned with regard to Agriculture and Animal farming, then I can give you a rational example: Camel is the most useful animal for Arabs, Arabs drink camel milk it was the best vehicle before the arrival of motor vehicles, its skin is used making water bags and other leather items and camel race is very famous among Arabs. Camel has been mentioned in the Qur'an (holy book of Muslims). Arabs are very fond of Camels. But all Arabs eat camel meat and it is consumed heavily in Arab world, during marriages so many camels are slaughtered.
Let's again look from a farmers points of view. Most of the farmers in India own 3 or less cows. These cows have a life of 15 years but are productive only for 6 or 7 years. The cost of maintaining then is around r₹1500 per month with no income. The farmers sell them and with the money they but a calf and the cycle goes on. Now what will they do? Slowly they will stop having cows. India is one among the largest milk producer and the largest exporter of leather. Almost 80% of the milk comes from the small farmers. Now soon we will end up importing from China. But who cares for the poor farmers?
India will never progress unless people start thinking rationally, and stop thinking emotionally.
