Halal meat is ‘economic jihad’: Karnataka BJP leader

Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader CT Ravi has called for boycott of halal meat as he termed it as ‘economic jihad’, while JD(S) leader HD Kumaraswamy said the saffron party is fighting issues like assembly elections in the state. is picking up. Just a year away.
The party’s national general secretary Ravi said halal meat offered to ‘their god’ is dear to them (Muslims), but for Hindus, it is someone’s leftover. He also said that Halal has been designed in a systematic manner so that the products are procured only from Muslims and not from others.
Halal is an economic jihad. This means that it is used as a jihad so that Muslims do not trade with others. It has been installed. When they think that halal meat should be used, what is wrong in saying that it should not be used?” he said.
“When Muslims refuse to buy meat from Hindus, why do you insist on Hindus to buy from them? What right do people even have to ask that?” Ravi wanted to know.
When asked about the boycott of Halal meat, he said that such trade practices are not one-way traffic but two-way. “If Muslims agree to eat non-halal meat, these people (Hindus) will also use halal meat.”
Responding to the BJP leader’s demand, Kumaraswamy said the government was responsible for the safety of all 6.5 crore people of the state and not just one community. He said the BJP is demanding such a ban as the assembly elections are in the fray. Elections are to be held in the state in April-May next year.
“I want to ask the government where do you want to take this state. With folded hands, I ask the Hindu youth not to spoil the state.
