Make cow as national animal to reduce terrorism: Pejavar seer

Udupi: Sri Vishwesha Theertha Swamiji of Sri Pejavar Mutt, Udupi on Tuesday, November 19 said that terrorism activities in India are propping up because tiger is the national animal of this country.

Addressing the gathering at Santa Samagam, a congregation of saints he said that the instances of terrorism activities are mainly because we have accepted tiger as our national animal. If we had embraced cow, the symbol of love and innocence, there would not have any terrorists born in this country.

He further added that the Union government should bring in the strict law to ensure enforcement of ban on cow slaughtering in India. “Purification of River Ganga should be another motto of the people,” he said,

On the occasion, Pejavar seer batting for uniform civil code said it was very much needed in the country as it treats every citizen of this nation as equal. The Hindu saints can hold the outreach programme with the leaders of Muslims and Christians so that a consensus is met to realise the implementation of uniform civil code.

Meanwhile, Yoga Guru Baba Ramdev said that non-vegetarian food habit has caused global warming. The law against cow slaughtering should be materialised.

“At least skip eating beef, if not other meat,” he said.
