According to Joshi, who is the Sahakaryavah of RSS, “cow protection is not against any religion or any particular community”. “Since ancient time, cow has been the medium of agriculture and economic growth for the agrarian community in the country,” he said. He also emphasised that the Sangh believes in dialogue and not in conflict. “We think that with the help of dialogue, cooperation, the issues can be sorted out, rather than conflict,” he said. While incidents of “gau-rakshaks” indulging in violence have been reported from several parts of the country, the issue of beef ban came to fore once again recently with the Centre’s ban on sale of cattle for slaughter at animal markets.
