2 Muslims who were suspected to be transporting beef from Mewat to Delhi, on the Kundli-Manesar-Palwal (KMP) Expressway, were blocked by goons of the GauRaksha Dal, who have beaten our brothers in faith, Mukhtiar, and Rizwan, and forced them to eat cow’s dung and drink its urine, all in the name of protecting the cow.
DharmendraYadav, president of the Gurgaon GauRaksha Dal, said his volunteers had done this horrible act.

Our question to them is: Don’t they know the addresses of the companies that export beef to the world, with the Government of India’s endorsement? India is the largest beef producing country to the world!
In India, animals such as cows and pigs are used as tools to create communal disharmony among different communities. The age old technique of these mischief mongers is to cut the head of the pig and throw it in the masjid, or cut the head of the cow and throw it in the temple. All done by groups who want unrest in India.
We condemn the Faridabad Police department for arresting the victims, instead of the goons.

In many such cases in the past, the Police have proven to be mere bystanders during mob violence and lynching. Such irresponsible numbness on the part of the Police must be condemned and accounted.
Let’s learn to live and let live. If India is a place where Hindus live, it is also the land where Muslims, Christians, Jains, Sikhs and Dalits live. One section of a community cannot dictate terms to the rest of the communities living in a pluralistic society of ours. If one doesn’t want to eat beef, no one’s forcing them to eat beef. Similarly, we don’t want others to dictate what we have to eat and not eat. If Muslims start doing “Moral Policing”, then we may have to close all the bars, liquor shops, pubs, discotheques, casinos, movie halls, and all those places that are against the Islamic ethos. Would anyone amongst you appreciate us if we did that?
Let the law take its course. What’s the purpose of the law, if goons such as these are on loose? What’s the difference between ISIS and these goons who carried such a heinous act against our Muslim brothers. The Muslim men who were humiliated and tortured unconstitutionally are our brothers in faith. We believe in Allah as our Creator, and we believe in Prophet Muhammad (May peace be upon him) as our Prophet, and that’s sufficient for us to unite, by the permission of God. We will stand for justice to be brought to our brothers in faith. We exhort the politicians to stop playing cheap politics by maintaining silence when they have to talk about justice.
We are against those who create bloodshed on earth – be it ISIS, Nazis or the Zionists. We condemn all those who follow anarchy. We condemn all those who violate human rights and animal rights.
If eating cow’s meat is considered against animal rights, then what will one term Obama, Putin, Netanyahu, and other leaders across the world who eat beef in morning breakfast and evening, and make burgers and soups out of beef? Nelson Mandela and Mother Theresa were beef eaters. And they won the Nobel Prize for peace too.
There are enough proofs in most of the ancient scriptures in India, which supports beef eating.
The Vedas:
The Aryans of the Rig Veda did kill cows for purposes of food and ate beef is abundantly clear from the Rig Veda itself. In Rig Veda (X. 86.14) Indra says: ‘They cook for one 15 plus twenty oxen”. The Rig Veda (X.91.14) says that for Agni were sacrificed horses, bulls, oxen, barren cows and rams. From the Rig Veda (X.72.6) it appears that the cow was killed with a sword or axe.
Did Hindus Never Eat Beef? by Dr. B.R. Ambedkar. (http://www.countercurrents.org/ambedkar050315.htm)
Ram Punyani writes for The Hindu Newspaper:
Many gods such as Indra and Agni are described as having special preferences for different types of flesh – Indra had weakness for bull’s meat and Agni for bull’s and cow’s. It is recorded that the Maruts and the Asvins were also offered cows. In the Vedas there is a mention of around 250 animals out of which at least 50 were supposed to be fit for sacrifice and consumption. In the Mahabharata, there is a mention of a king named Rantideva who achieved great fame by distributing foodgrains and beef to Brahmins. Taittiriya Brahman categorically tells us: `Verily the cow is food’ (athoannam via gauh) and Yajnavalkya’s insistence on eating the tender (amsala) flesh of the cow is well known. Even later Brahminical texts provide the evidence for eating beef. Even Manusmriti did not prohibit the consumption of beef.

The Upanishads talk of beef eating culture in India:
Brihadaranyaka Upanishad 6.4.18 And if a man wishes that a learned son should be born to him, famous, a public man, a popular speaker, that he should know all the Vedas, and that he should live to his full age, then, after having prepared boiled rice with meat and butter, they should both eat, being fit to have offspring. The meat should be of a young or of an old bull.

The Bible permits the eating of beef:
11 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron, 2 “Tell the Israelites: These are the animals you can eat: 3 If an animal has hooves that are split into two parts, and if that animal also chews the cud, then you may eat the meat from that animal.
Leviticus 11, ERVhttps://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Leviticus+11&version=ERV
The Qur’an permits the eating of beef:
And certainly did Our messengers come to Abraham with good tidings; they said, “Peace.” He said, “Peace,” and did not delay in bringing [them] a roasted calf. Qur’an 11:69
The Sikhs have no texts to forbid beef. The ancestors of Jains were beef eaters before Mahavira forbade it.
Swami Vivekananda says:
“You will be surprised to know that according to ancient Hindu rites and rituals, a man cannot be a good Hindu who does not eat beef”.(The Complete Works of Swami Vivekanand, vol.3, p. 536).
This is the age of Google. For those who are sincere seekers of truth, the truth is just a tap away. The phones with internet will bring you all the proofs in a second, God-Willing.
We advise the mischief mongers to not check the pulse of the Muslims. It is not a wise thing to do. Muslims in India are exercising patience to maintain peace. We Muslims want to be constitutionally right. And we can never be bogged down by such unruly goons.
Bakrid is approaching in the next 3 months. We warn the GauRaksha Dal to stop using the GauRaksha Card to create unrest during our festivals. All those who talk about the cow and GauRaksha – here is an open challenge to you: Come for a live debate in front of the public. Let’s debate and prove to you from your own scriptures on the permissibility for eating beef.
MPJR – MISSION POSSIBLE FOR JUSTICE & RIGHTS will soon take legal actions against DharmendraYadav and his volunteers of the GauRaksha Dal, according to the provisions provided under the constitution.
