Zodiac Matches That Make The Best Couples
ISKCON, the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, is the “biggest cheat” in the nation because it sells cows from its gaushalas (cowsheds) to butchers, according to BJP MP Maneka Gandhi.
The allegations were rejected as “unsubstantiated and false” by ISKCON, the most powerful Krishna sect in the world.
Ms. Gandhi, a former union minister and proponent of animal rights, frequently speaks out on social media about concerns relating to animal welfare.
“ISKCON is the biggest cheat in the country. It maintains gaushalas and gets benefits from the government, including vast lands,” she said in a viral video.
She then reflects on her trip to ISKCON’s Anantpur Gaushala in Andhra Pradesh, where she claims she was unable to find any cows or calves that don’t produce milk. “The entire dairy had no dry cows. There was not one calf in sight. It indicates that all were sold.
A dry cow is one that hasn’t been milked recently.
“ISKCON is selling all its cows to the butchers. No one else does this as much they do. And they go on and sing ‘Hare Ram Hare Krishna’ on the roads. Then they say their entire life is dependent on milk. Probably, no one has sold as many cattle to the butchers as they did,” she alleges.
ISKCON’s national spokesperson Yudhistir Govinda Das denied the accusations, saying the organisation has been at the forefront of cow and bull protection and care not only in India but worldwide. “The cows and bulls are served for their life not sold to butchers as alleged,” he said.
“Smt. Gandhi is a well-known animal rights activist and well-wisher of ISKCON hence we are surprised by these statements,” he further added.
