New Delhi, Jul 5: It has only been a few days since prime minister Narendra Modi lashed out at violence in the name of cow protection, but the Viswa Hindu Parishad (VHP) seems to be not in a mood to embrace the PM's view.surendrajain

In a gesture of wholehearted support to the cow vigilante groups, the Hindutva outfit on Tuesday said cow protectors or 'gau-rakshaks' were 'victims not tyrants".

VHP international joint secretary, Surendra Jain, said the strong meat lobby was trying to malign the holy vow of cow protection.

"In last 10 years, more than 50 policemen and gau-rakshaks were killed by the cow butchers. These killers or jehadis have brutally murdered the innocent people committed for the cause of cow protection," he said.

Stating that there is no place for violence in the holy resolve to protect the cow, Jain added but everyone including a cow protector has right to self-defense.

"Cow protectors are victims not tyrants as some people are trying to establish".

VHP's remarks in support of cow protectors, comes days after Modi had said that killing people in the name of cow protection is not acceptable.

Taking on the organizers of the 'Not in My Name' protests, taken out against lynching of people, especially Muslims in the name of cow protection, Jain said "the placard-carrying groups with selfish interests were trying to malign the holy resolve of cow-protection".

"These people will question our brave soldiers fighting in Kashmir but support Yakub Memon by opposing his death sentence," he added.

At present, VHP runs more than 450 'gaushalas' (shelters for cows) in different parts of the country and more than 1,500 similar shelters are run by its volunteers.

Violence unleashed by gau rakshaks have been on the rise in the country in recent years and the lynching of a Muslim teen, Juanid, by a mob on board a train for allegedly carrying beef sparked a wide range of debate on the issue of late.

RSS terrorists would not listen to the word of CM they need special treatment from CM & Army. Shut down RSS members business and revoke their govt employment contract. Do not allow them to work in educational institutions & banks. Watch out how they are doing GST.

Bengaluru, Jul 17: Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa on Friday held a meeting with the Ministers-in-charge of eight zones to take stock of the COVID-19 situation and its management in Bengaluru.

Yediyurappa suggested that it should be ensured that both COVID-19 and other patients get timely treatment. He advised home quarantine for asymptomatic patients and hospitals and COVID Care Centers would provide treatment for those who are severely symptomatic.

He said, Rapid Antigen Testing should be carried out for those who died in the hospital, for immediate delivery of the corpse for funeral arrangements. He also said to conduct Rapid Antigen Test for those who have died at home and take action for the funeral of the dead.

The chief minister said, lockdown is not a solution to COVID-19 control, he made it clear that the government has no plans to continue with the lockdown in Bengaluru.

"To fill the shortage of doctors, the process of filling vacancies is ongoing," he said.

"Volunteers are identified and ambulances are assigned to each ward.  Strict action should be taken if private hospitals do not provide beds to patients," the Chief Minister said.

The chief minister said volunteers and nodal officers would be appointed to provide information on the enrollment and availability of beds to COVID-19 infected persons in private hospitals.

"Welfare pavilions and lodges have been identified in each ward, suggesting the use of quarters to quarantine those who do not have separate rooms," the Chief Minister said.

He said, allocate bed within two hours of the result of the test and the ambulance must take action to take the person to the hospital. The Chief Minister suggested that the system be decentralised, zoned, and monitored.
