Law favours slaughtering animals for food: SDPI reminds BJP

August 14, 2016

Madikeri, Aug 14: Social?Democratic Party of India's (SDPI) city unit secretary Mustafa on Saturday reminded BJP workers of an act that supports slaughtering of animals for food.

biryaniAddressing mediatresses here, Mustafa said there is a provision to kill animals for food according to an act introduced in 1966. It is also applicable to Kodagu and the BJP leaders are coming out with baseless statements without having a knowledge of the act, he charged.

Mustafa said according to statistics, India ranked top in the export of beef during 2014-15. Incidentally, a BJP legislator in Uttar Pradesh himself is a beef exporter. So also, four firms involved in same business in other parts of the country are owned by a particular community, he claimed.

He charged that the BJP, hiding all such facts, is creating chaos and confusion, besides indulging in attacking innocent dalits and minority community people. Mustafa suggested measures to check the cow slaughtering racket by legalising it with licence.

He also defended the speech of SDPI?district unit president Ameen Mohsin on the issue at protest staged recently. He criticised that the BJP, which has no issues to fight the local body election, is engaged in a rift in the society.

MLA?Apacchu Ranjan lacks concern towards development of the district. He is still unable to take up works on building private bus stand, Mustafa said.

Standing Committee president at Madikeri City Municipal Council Mansoor Ali said, “Food habits have the backing of Constitution of India.”

Kochi/Thiruvananthapuram, Jan 7: The Managing Director of Muthoot Finance company was injured after miscreants allegedly pelted his car with stones here on Tuesday morning following which one person was reportedly taken into custody.

George Alexander Muthoot, who suffered head injury has been admitted to a private hospital, police said.

A section of employees have been agitating against the Muthoot management over dismissal of 160 staff from the company's 43 branches across the state in December.

The protest is being held under the aegis of the Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU).

While the Muthoot management alleged that "CITU goons" were behind the attack that occurred at around 9 am in front of IG office here, the union leaders have maintained that they have no role in the incident.

Reacting to the incident, Labour Minister T P Ramakrishnan said he does not think any of the Muthoot employees were behind the attack.

"The employees were protesting peacefully. Violence is not part of their protest. Even now, in today's incident, I don't think any of the Muthoot employees attacked the MD.

However, it was the management of the company which had always provoked them by not implementing the decisions taken at conciliatory meetings," the Minister said.

If the management was prepared to change its stance, all the issues would be resolved, he said.

CITU leader Ananthavattom Anandan told reporters that they do not believe in such type of violent mode of agitation.

An official of the Confederation of Indian Industries Kerala chapter condemned the incident, saying "it is a matter of great concern".

Well known businessman and founder chairman and CEO of V-Guard Industries, Kochouseph Chittilappilly condemned the attack and said it was unfortunate that such incidents still continue in the state.

“Earlier also such incidents have taken palace. It's highly condemnable. The union leaders will now claim that the incident took place without their knowledge. But without the backing of union, such incidents will never happen,” he said.

Kerala-headquartered Muthoot Finance is the largest gold financing company in India.

Mysuru, Jan 19: Karnataka Rural Development and Panchyat Raj Minister K S Eshwarappa on Sunday claimed that Popular Front of India and Social Democratic Party of India have been indulging in anti-national activities.

Talking to media persons here, he said the government is mulling to ban and take action against PFI and its political arm SDPI.

It was recommended even during the previous government, but it was not taken seriously, he added.

He said that the BJP will ensure that all the MLAs who were instrumental in the party coming to power (the then-disqualified MLAs who joined BJP from Congress and JDS recently and won the bypoll subsequently) will not be let down and be given suitable posts in the government.
