GO RAKSHAK IS AN IMPOTENT TEAM. If they are really worried for Cow. They should come together to punish BJP men. It clearly shows that they are not worried for cow, they just want to get the benefit from cow voters during the election.
Saffron party not worried for cow. They are utilizing cow for their vote bank. If they are real worried then how India reached no.1 position in beef exporting, and modi government gives discount on the import of beef cutting machinary. Hindu people blindly believe their leaders and they utilize their voters like cow.
