During a recent Shakha event in Amritsar, Tarun Chugh (BJP National General Secretary) praised the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) as India's largest voluntary organization, emphasizing its role in fostering patriotism and national service among its volunteers. Chugh expressed pride in the association with the RSS, which he believes inspires dedication towards the country. He criticized individuals advocating for cow slaughter, labeling such actions as stemming from a 'demonic mindset' that threatens social harmony and disrespects the cultural sentiments of millions who view cows as sacred. Chugh argued that while every citizen has the constitutional right to celebrate their religious festivals, this freedom should not come at the expense of others' beliefs. In a related legal context, the Calcutta High Court recently upheld a ban on cattle slaughter in West Bengal, requiring a fitness certificate for such actions, thereby reinforcing the state's commitment to animal welfare and cultural values.
