    While I understand that the cow is sacred and slaughtering it would hurt the sentiments of people, what is the problem with buffaloes. In Mumbai where the shivsena rules supreme, buffalo meat is sold as beef in the markets. If transporting buffalo is illegal then what about tranporting chicken or sheep or goats?.
