Where’s the beef?


Krishen Kak

Circulating over the web are many nauseatingly gruesome videos of cows in India being trucked to slaughter, and many revolting grisly videos of their slaughter for their meat. Their meat is commonly called “beef” and this essay raises questions of the ‘what’ and ‘where’ in India is “beef”. The opening focus is on official aspects at the national and international level; we look at official aspects at the level of some States, and conclude with the reality of the Indian beef industry and some questions that must concern all patriotic Indians.
