Because of a case, cattle may become a "national beast" in India.
"The cattle must be declared beasts of the nation, and the protection of the cattle must be a fundamental right of the Hindus." "Indian Express", "Hindustan Times" and other Indian media reported on September 1 and 2 that Judge Yadav of the High Court of Allahabad in the country rejected the bail application of an Indian man accused of slaughtering cattle on the 1st, and at the same time took this opportunity to urge the Indian central government to formulate a bill on "protecting cattle" as soon as possible and submit it to Parliament.

According to the report, the man involved in the case, named Javid, was sentenced to prison on March 8 this year. In his recent bail application, he said his allegations of alleged slaughter of cattle were not established because he was not present at the time. "[Someone] colluded with the police to report a fake case against him." He was quoted as saying.
However, the bail application was rejected by the High Court of Justice of Allah Abad, India. In the rejection, Judge Yadav wrote in Hindi: "You can't deprive some people of their taste buds ... And the right to life is higher than the right to kill... Eating beef can never be a fundamental right...
"Panchakavyam is made from milk, curd, butter, urine, and cow dung, and is helpful in treating certain diseases." The judge gave an example of the importance of cattle in the country of India as one of the reasons for the rebuttal.
"Whenever we forget our culture, foreigners invade and enslave us, and today as is the case, and we do not remain vigilant, then the example of the Taliban taking over Afghanistan is in front of us and we should not forget." Judge Yadav said that cattle have become part of Indian culture and should not be wasted or even forgotten.
(In India, 20 local states have laws prohibiting the slaughter of cattle in part or in whole, a provision that dates back nearly 70 years.)
Public information shows that cattle are regarded as "sacred beasts" by Hindus. Hindus believe that cattle are both a symbol of reproduction and a basic guarantee of human survival. Hinduism does not allow beef to be eaten, and although India has a cattle industry, it can only provide milk, butter and cow dung as fuel. Although cattle cannot be slaughtered and eaten for meat, there are a few places where there is a difference between serving cattle (used for civilian transportation and cultivated land). Therefore, in some cities and villages in India, old cattle, sick cattle, and residual cattle abound, and cattle can roam freely and be sacred.
According to the Indian Express, according to the "protect cattle" bill conceived by Judge Yadav, if the relevant bill is passed, "those who talk about 'harming cattle' with words, those who pretend to protect cattle" may be severely punished.
