SC Stays Madas HC Order Banning Cow Slaughter in Tamil Nadu

The Bench comprising Justice Vikram Nath and Justice Sandeep Mehta gave the interim verdict on the litigation filed by the state government of Tamil Nadu, challenging the



Madras HC order. 

The Madras HC order had directed to impose a statewide blanket ban on slaughter of cows and calves. 

Madras HC had issued the order banning cow slaughter in the state on May 27, on the eve of Bakrid, on a PIL filed by a leader of the Hindu Makkal Katchi outfit.
