Cows in India

[Catherine]

All the vegetarian foods are available in India. They grow all the lentils and grains also many fruits and vegetables. I think as a country it has high level of vegetarians.

I think there is a problem with the cows just running wild. It might seem like respect, but they are not being cared for in some cases. They can also be destructive.

There is no balance if a man can be killed because someone started a rumor that he ate beef.

If India is exporting beef then cows are being killed.
They need to find some balance between the extremes. The cows will get better care in the end because it will not depend on how fervent the feelings are about them.

I can't help thinking about Gadhimai and how people crossed the border into Nepal from India with animals for the slaughter.

They went from extreme protection to cruel slaughter.
