Fully agreed with kavita, its g8 step taken by Karnataka Govt. Other state should also follow it, and dear Sudhir, Dalit harassment is also very bad and their are laws to prevent it. But you can't take support of that wrong statement to oppose this law.Their are always some people using their clout for the sake of their fanaticism. We should oppose them instead of taking their reference.

My view is that unwanted killing of anything is wrong. Even the animals do not kill beyond their absolute need to quench their hunger. However the issues involved are much mor complex: The important question; are Homo sapiens carnivorous by design. Unlike the carnivorous animals that mostly depend on flesh of animals, fish or birds for their survival, many humans have conditioned their minds to live as vegetarians by way of their religious faith or personal choice. It proves that meat eating is not an absolute necessity to sustain human life. However, that does not mean that others who do not follow it are doing some grave sin or crime. Therefore, if some government wants to ban cow slaughter according to the wish of the majority people, there is nothing wrong in doing that. It is equally important that there should be no objection if some section of the people wants to eat meat including cow meat, procured from where it is legitimate. There is another side of issue: If humans do not need domesticated animals for food, its production itself will not happen in the first place. If animal killing is banned, there will be no domesticated animals in due course. If only cow slaughter is to be banned, it may result in only male calves are produced. Why only ‘no’ to cow slaughter? If cow is considered holy, stealing it's milk meant for its off springs for human consumption also is wrong. Then how will we get cow’s milk. Further, is not eating eggs which are supposed to become chickens is also wrong? The issues go on and on endlessly.

Other usable things from cow is leather which can be removerd after death even.... I am in support of this state Govt decision....and other states should also folow this

I agree with Miss. Shanker, apart for right to live it will be step towards preservation of Indian culture, that aspect is required to be looked in to. If we do not preserve it, it also will be an animal like tiger in the future.

100% a great move. People keep talking that we are now living in a modern futuristic world and everyone has novelty gadgets and imported stuff, lifestyles have improved and even after such a big transformation from the traditional terms to the new ones, people believe in 'bali' and stupid rituals like that? thts completely untolerable. Animal slaughtering should be banned absolutely, not only ban cow slughtering but ban pig & goat/lamb slaughtering too. Even though I am a non vegetarian, I prefer only chicken & sea food. PETA is actively involved in opposing animal cruelty and should take steps in India for banning rituals and traditions that involve animal slaughter. Why keep penalties for those caught slaugheting, and why put them in Jail....instead cut-off one of their limbs just to make them feel the pain for the rest of their lives. Mercy hould be lent to those who belive in it and have the same on animals. Once in your life, try staring into the eyes of animals, i bet you'll see love for you and sheer innocence. Leave them Please.

This is ridiculous. Each individual is entitled to his/her own food habits. The government has no right to force people to not consume a particular food.
