VHP SENT LETTER TO PM AGAINST BEEF EXPORT
VHP SENT LETTER TO PM AGAINST BEEF EXPORT
New Delhi Feb 17, 2012. Annoyed by the union agriculture ministry’s
proposal to planning commission to lift ban on beef export, Vishwa
Hindu Parishad(VHP) sent a letter to the prime minister Dr Manmohan
Singh seeking immediate rejection of the recommendations made therein.
The letter signed by the senior adviser shri Ashok Singhal, vice
president shri Omprakash Singhal & the int’l secretary general of the
organization shri Champat Rai has also been sent to the deputy
chairman of the planning commission shri Montek Singh Ahluwalia.
Terming the recommendation shameless, mindless, audacious & sad, VHP
wrote that it is a hostility perpetrated against the Dharmic,
spiritual, holistic, altruistic and syncretic worldview of the
country.
It is to note that the GOI Working Group on Animal Husbandry &
Dairying for 12th Five Year Plan (2012-17) has submitted a report to
the Planning Commission, Government of India. The Report, audaciously
asking for permission, reads: “There is an existing Ban on beef
exports; therefore it is necessary to revise the EXIM policy to allow
beef export…” vide Paragraph 12.3.1 under Chapter 12 - Meat and
Abattoirs.
According to shri Vinod Bansal, the media chief of VHP Delhi we have
reminded the PM an the deputy chairman-Planning Commission that A
cow’s person is revered as hosting millions of deities. Elaborating
the importance of Cow and its progeny for the causes of both Green and
White Revolution, VHP said that the Mother Cow is a complete ecology
that holds in the heart and ethos of Hindustan. Our history is full of
sacrifices made by people, saints & sages for its protection,
preservation and promotion. The good of “Gow, Garib and Dharma” has
also been the triple agenda of the entire Sikh history, especially the
Khalsa history led by Guru Gobind Singhji Maharaj.
Giving reference of the DIRECTIVE PRINCIPLES OF STATE POLICY under
ARTICLE 48 of the constitution VHP said that it is the duty of the
state to “…take steps for preserving and improving the breeds, and
prohibiting the slaughter, of cows and calves and other milch and
draught cattle.” VHP also referred article 48A & 51A of the
constitution alongwith supreme court decision dated 26.10.2005 in
Civil Appeals No. 4937-4940 of 1998 State of Gujrat & other Vs
Mirzapur Moti Kureshi Kassab Jamat & others in this regard. Even some
Mughal rulers made cow slaughter a punishable offence and many
Sant-Mahatmas and Gobhaktas (Cow Devotees) have sacrificed their lives
for the cause of cow protection, the letter added. Hindus lead by
Saints may come on the roads if the Govt do not forthwith withdraw the
recommendations, VHP said.
