| Subject: Idiots in Government: India's top court stays controversial cattle slaughter ban Wed Jul 12, 2017 1:08 am | |
| India's top court on Tuesday stayed a nationwide ban imposed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government on the sale of cattle for slaughter that had provoked outcry in many states.
The Supreme Court upheld a decision by a lower court staying the ban imposed in May, which prohibited the sale and purchase of cows -- an animal considered sacred for Hindus -- for slaughter.
The sudden ruling had sparked protests against what many saw as an overreach by the Hindu-right Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), and many states where cow slaughter was legal vowed to fight the decree.
Petitioners in the southern state of Tamil Nadu launched the first challenge, claiming the ban infringed their right to eat what they choose, a flashpoint issue in the Hindu-majority nation.
Allegations of cow slaughter and beef consumption against Muslims and other minorities have triggered murders and violent reprisals in India, where many are vegetarian.
