The police had raided a spot inside a rubber plantation in Beltangady where cows bought from Sullia were slaughtered and beef was made. During the raid there, 100 kg of beef was recovered. An illegal slaughterhouse had been set up in Beltangady from where beef was taken to urban areas. These are the main cases, the others being raids conducted during illegal transportation of the cattle.

In the new anti-cow slaughter act, the quantum of imprisonment and fine have been considerably increased and tough clauses have been added. The law has empowered sub-inspectors of police to siege the area where cow slaughter takes place and to take away animals. Illegal cow slaughter and sale of beef are criminal offences which attract three to ten years of jail and fine up to five lac rupees. With repeated offences, the sentence and penalty gets increased.

People who transport cattle for agriculture, have to provide all the details to the department of animal husbandry and obtain certificate from the department to transport the cattle.

In the state, a total of 58 complaints under the said law were received, out of which 29 FIRs were filed. Fifty persons have been identified as accused. Three cases are being heard by courts, two are in the state of charge sheet submission while in other cases investigation is in progress. Chikkamagaluru has three cases, Tumakuru and Mandya two each while Hassan, Ramanagara, Uttara Kannada, Kalaburagi, Vijayapura, Ballari and Kodagu districts have one case each.

    The joke is so called non - beef eaters here in India they consider Cow has their God. And these same people who say beef is God go abroad they eat beef it saying it’s a foreign cow.

    India is the largest beef export followed by Australia and Brazil. Company belongs to Hindus. Why can't they cancel the export license.

    Please understand the difference between legal and illegal cow slaughter.. You people are known for all such illegal activities like Cow theft and Drug peddling. Instead of whining about others why don't you educate your community people not to involve in any illegal activity? That is the last thing you would do.

    If cow slaughtering is banned in India, why the government allows licenced slaughter-houses to slaughter the animals to export the meat? India exports over $3 billion worth of beef to Christian and Muslim Countries but the people belonging to these religions cannot eat the meat in India!!! Is it not strange? I strongly feel the government does have some motive behind its decision. Can the supporters of the ban explain to me what could be the reason for this? Having said, I and my family have reduced eating beef for personal reasons though once a while we go for it.

    It is highly recommended that Goshala statistics must be audited...., on many occasions the Gau palaka may not be smart to keep the count (example: beginning is 100+ intake in a month say 50 and resulting in end of the month say 125); what does it sounds....., if there is no deaths of Gomatha's.... a food for thought....,and Gau palaka's blessings many fold..., beginning they come by TVS ..and after some time say an years time.... may be driving SUV's possible....,
