beef-ban-to-continue-in-maharashtra
The ban on beef will continue in Maharashtra after the Bombay High Court today upheld the state government's decision to ban the slaughter of bullocks.
The court, however, struck down a section in the Maharashtra Animal Preservation (Amendment) Act, which criminalises the possession of beef brought from outside Maharashtra.
The High Court was hearing a bunch of petitions challenging the constitutional validity of the ban imposed last year soon after the BJP government took over.
