End of the day, stop trying to portray universal rules for all. Every country, every society has different outlooks and different issues to deal with and thus different rules.

As someone mentioned not everyone can be pleased. I find the special treatment for the minorities very unfair. But boohooo, people have to live with it...

You bring up a very valid approach to things that avoids the whole communal mess.


Food is food. For many people beef is a cheap and abundant source of food. Every time you ban one source of food, you create scarcity. This scarcity jacks up prices and makes cost effective food inaccessible to a larger group of society. A nation like India trying to feed and sustain a billion should be looking into ways to make more food sources accessible and affordable. Blocking access to any food source is counterproductive to the well being of a nation stretched and strained with its food resources.


We have to realize the choice of eating a kosher, halal, vegetarian, gluten free, vegen, lactose free diet is a privilege we have as people with means and access. There are people in this world where food isn't about choices religious, ethical or personal - it is about feeding your family with your bottom dollar.


All religion aside, this was a very foolish move by the Maharashtra government. It is very shortsighted and not benefitting the people as a whole.

Hinduism believes that there is God in all living things...so why spare one animal and let others be killed...its beyond me.

That actress is indeed a hypocrite.

But then that poster for fish was just a call. She wasn't imposing it on anybody. It was a message.

Whereas beef ban is a law which is enforced.

Ban won't help. Illegal ways exist and people will still find ways to do what they want to.

I don't know why cows are rotting and starving on streets, why getting injected with Oxytocin to get more milk, why all torture if it is so sacred?

Killing other life forms is okay? Aren't all life forms sacred?
