It also delved into the matter of animal rights and held that in order to comply with Article 48 of the Constitution the Central Government should consider enacting law “prohibiting slaughtering of cow/calf, import or export of cow/calf, selling of beef or beef products”. It also directed the Central government to provide funds to the State for the housing and provision of fodder for stray cattle.
