Worship, Kill, Export: BJP ruled India is world’s largest beef exporter!

New Delhi, Apr 24: While most of the state governments in India are trying to implement strict ban on slaughtering of cows and bullocks, the nation stands contradictory in its exporting of beef.

According to the latest report released by United States department of agriculture (USDA), India not only stands at the top as global beef exporter sharing position with Brazil, but also India’s exports of beef are on the rise.

The report predicts that India's beef export will cross 10.2 MT when Bharatiya Janata Party’s cow worshipping Prime Minister Narendra Modi completes one year at the helm of nation’s governance.

India has been the largest exporter of beef in the world since last year, and has further widened its lead over second-ranked Brazil with a projected total of 2.4 million tons exported in 2015 against Brazil’s 2 million.

Beef has also overtaken basmati rice as India’s largest agricultural food export in terms of value, according to data from the country’s Agricultural and Processed Food Products’ Export Development Authority, cited by the Economic Times newspaper.

Although the slaughter of cows, sacred for the Hindus that make up India’s majority population, has long been banned in several parts of the country, states like Maharashtra — one of its largest — recently expanded the ban to include bulls and bullocks as well. However, since India’s exports are composed entirely of water-buffalo meat or carabeef, the bans will not affect the figures cited in the report.

“It could bring an end to illegal slaughter and raise the price for buffalo meat, thus proving to be beneficial for companies like us who are engaged in legal slaughter and export of buffalo meat,” Priya Sud, a partner at New Delhi–based Al Noor Exports, said.

Meanwhile, the Russian market is very keen on Indian buffalo meat export as they are also thinking to increase the shipments.

Russia had already approved four Indian companies to export meat. However, the data provided by Agricultural and Processed Food Products' Export Development Authority (Apeda) also indicates that the buffalo meat has already overtaken basmati rice as the largest exported commodity.

Vietnam is considered as the largest buyer of Indian buffalo meat. "The devaluation of Brazilian currency and problems in the re-export of buffalo meat from Vietnam to Hong Kong have affected Indian exports," DB Sabharwal, secretary of All India Meat and Livestock Exporters' Association, said.

Hassan: Former Prime Minister and JD(S) supremo H.D. Deve Gowda has announced that his son, former Karnataka Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy will contest from state's Mandya parliamentary seat as NDA candidate.

Deve Gowda told reporters on Tuesday that the decision to field Kumaraswamy, who is also JD(S) state president, in Lok Sabha polls from the Mandya seat was taken amid mounting public demand. "People are demanding that Kumaraswamy should contest from Mandya. In the core committee meeting as well, all members suggested that he should contest from Mandya," Deve Gowda said.

The former Chief Minister's son Nikhil Kumaraswamy had lost to independent candidate Sumalatha Ambareesh from Mandya in the 2019 Lok Sabha polls.

The JD(S) supremo further said that the name of senior leader Mallesh Babu has been finalised from the Kolar seat.

Deve Gowda's grandson and former Karnataka Minister H. D. Revanna's son sitting JD(S) MP Prajwal Revanna will be contesting as the NDA candidate from the Hassan seat.

Earlier in the day, Kumaraswamy in a media briefing indicated that he would contest from Mandya amid mounting public pressure on him.

Congress has fielded Venkatarame Gowda popularly known as ‘Star Chandru’ from the Mandya seat dominated by Vokkaligas. Star Chandru is a close associate of Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar.
