The Arabic word Halal means ‘Valid according to Islam’ ! Originally, a demand kept in the context of meat, ‘Halal’ is now demanded in many things, including vegetarian food, cosmetics, medicines, hospitals, household items and even malls. For this, it has been made mandatory to obtain a ‘Halal certificate’ from private Islamic organizations. In secular India, is it necessary to obtain a private Islamic certificate after obtaining a certificate from the government’s Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) ? Muslims constitute only 15% of the population in India. Why then is ‘Halal Certificate’ being imposed on the remaining 85% Hindus ?
Halal Certification – The Economic Jihad route to Islamization of India
To protest against this Halal imposition on Hindus, they took to Twitter and started tweeting with hashtag #BoycottHalalProducts. At around 9.30 AM, this trend was on 2nd spot in top national trends on Twitter in India and it was there for few hours. Till writing, more than 1.07 lakh tweets were tweeted using this hashtag and the trend was on 4th spot.
Here are some of the tweets from the trend :
The Islamic Economic system (Halalonomics) has crept into our Secular system. Now the Halal certification is no longer limited to meats, but touches every sphere of our daily lives – from meats to packages foods, medicines, beauty products & so on#BoycottHalalProducts pic.twitter.com/aGtT18WlGW

The Hindu word in the Hindu fruit shop was constitutional, yet the shopkeeper was prosecuted! Yesterday Jain hotelman was prosecuted in Chennai; But there is no action against companies denying employment to the Hindu society by the Halal certificate. pic.twitter.com/CAURMWhLmZ

Just wondering, is it illegal to #BoycottHalalProducts?! Do I not have a right to choose what I want & what I don't?!

By purchasing and serving only ‘halal’ meat, restaurants are effectively boycotting non-Muslim butchers, and helping Muslims to monopolize the meat market. This is a serious case of religious discrimination. Is the GoI listening? #BoycottHalalProducts pic.twitter.com/gZHpXdrSld
