Love & rgdsThere is a myth that the invading Muslim rulers introduced Indians to eating beef. But it is clear from the Vedas and other ancient scriptures that Indians did eat beef thousands of years before Islam reached India. According to the Vedas Lord Indra ate bulls meat and Lord Agni ate bulls meat and also cow meat. Vedas also talk about 250 animals of which 50 are deemed fit for sacrifice and human consumption including the cow. The Charaka Samhita (ancient Indian Ayurvedic text) prescribes beef (and beef soup) as a medicine for curing diseases such as fever. For more on this subject please read “Holy Cow: Beef in Indian Dietary Traditions” by Professor Dwijendra Narayan Jha.
The voice of the majority works differently in politics when compared to other issues like individual rights. In politics the majority rule but not so in other areas. The resolution passed by the MCD cannot override the individual rights of the citizens of Delhi or the Indian athletes who will be attending the Commonwealth Games. They may want to eat beef which is not illegal in India (only cow slaughtering is illegal in certain states).
