A video of BJP MP Maneka Gandhi went viral in which she could be heard charging that the ISKCON is the “biggest cheat in the country which sells cows from its gaushalas (cowsheds) to butchers”.
The International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) has issued BJP MP Maneka Gandhi a Rs 100 crore defamation notice over her statement that the ISKCON sells cows to butchers for slaughter. According to ISKCON vice president Radharamn Das, the organisation will continue to litigate the lawsuit against the former Union minister. The awful remarks made by Maneka Gandhi offended ISKCON members all over the world. The devotees were "deeply pained" by the comments, ISKCON has termed her accusations "completely unfounded".
"How could an MP who was a former minister lie about ISKCON without any evidence? She said she went to Anantpur gaushala, but people there can't remember Maneka Gandhi visiting there. So sitting at home, she is making these baseless allegations," the vice president said.
A few days ago, a video of BJP MP Maneka Gandhi went viral in which she could be heard charging that the ISKCON is the “biggest cheat in the country which sells cows from its gaushalas (cowsheds) to butchers”.
"They establish gaushalas and get benefits from the government to run these gaushalas. And they get huge land for that. I visited their Anantpur gaushala. Not a single dry cow was present. All were dairies. No calf was there either which means all cows were sold. So ISKCON is selling their cows to butchers. No one else does as much as they (ISKCON) do. And they do 'hare ram hare krishna' on the roads. They also say their life is dependent on doodh, doodh, doodh, doodh. No one has sold as many cows to butchers as ISKCON did. If these people can do it, what about the others?" Maneka Gandhi said.
The allegation has been strongly refuted by the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) which called it “unsubstantiated and false”.
