'Punish those doing crimes in name of cow protection'
Home Minister Rajnath Singh has urged the states to take strict action against "anti-social elements indulging in nefarious activities in the name of cow protection". "To deal with [the] perverted mindset of those who resort to such atrocities is a big challenge," he said. Notably, Dalit men were earlier attacked by vigilantes for allegedly skinning a dead cow in Gujarat.
