Mangalore (Karnataka) : "The newly-formed government has proved to be against the Hindus right from the beginning. The policy to ban cow slaughter mooted by the previous government has been scraped by the new government, which cleary shows that it is against us," said B Manjunath Mandya, state convener of Bajrang Dal.
Addressing a press meet here on Friday May 17, urged the government not to form anti-Hindu policies and also demanded that it instruct all deputy commissioners to shut down illegal slaughter houses in the state at the earliest.
He further said that Bajrang Dal would intensify its protest by raiding illegal slaughter houses and then forcibly seal them if their demands were not fulfilled.
"There are very few legal slaughter houses in the district which are permitted to kill only a few cows. But when it comes to beef stalls in Dakshina Kannada and Udupi districts, there are more than 250 of them, which shows that a large number of illegal slaughter houses do exist," said Sharan Pumpwell, convener of Bajrang Dal, Mangalore unit.
Commenting on the issue of moral policing, he said, "We have been hearing many statements made by newly elected MLAs about moral policing. Bajrang Dal being a national association does not act against law. Government and its leaders should first think why moral policing takes place and then talk about it. Don't trouble us with that issue."
Jagadish Shenava, working president of VHP, Bhujanga Kulal, Bajrang Dal district convener, Pradeep Pumpwell among others were present.
