'Cow dung homes safe from radiation...': Gujarat judge on cow slaughter

All the problems of Earth will be solved if cow slaughter is stopped - this is what a judge in Gujarat reportedly said while sentencing a man to life in jail for illegally transporting cattle.

The principal district judge of Tapi district court, Samir Vinodchandra Vyas, made the comments in a judgment pronounced in November 2022, as per reports.

He also said that "houses made of cow dung are not affected by atomic radiation" and 'gaumutra', or cow urine cures "many incurable diseases".

"Cow is not only an animal, but it is the mother. That is why it is given the name of the mother. None is so grateful as a cow. A cow is the living planet of 68 crore holy places and thirty-three crore gods. The obligation of a cow on the entire Universe defies description," the judgment said.

"The day when no drop of blood of cow drops on the earth all problems of the earth will be solved and the well-being of the earth will be established. There is much talk of cow protection and cow rearing but it is not put in to practice," the judge added.

The case was about the illegal transportation of around 16 cows.
