Modi visits all country for yoga publicity.
Why he is silent on protecting cows(hindu god) in foreign country ?
RSS and all hindu Groups should approach foreign country to stop killing their Gods, If foreign country rejects their proposal then they should take actions to boycott foreign goods.
Is there any man in RSS or Hindu group to stop killing of Hindu God in the world ?
