Ramdev urges PM to enforce total ban on cow slaughter
Yoga guru Ramdev today appealed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi to enforce a total ban on cow slaughter, saying it was necessary to contain the communal clashes in the country.
“I appeal to the Prime Minister to enforce a total ban on cow slaughter. If there is a blanket ban…there would be no communal tension, clashes in the country,” he told a press conference here.
“Till the 18th century, there was no cow slaughter in India and even Aurangzeb had put a total ban on cow killing. Uttar Pradesh appears to be a highly sensitive state in the country, there is a complete ban on cow slaughter, too,” he said.
