RESULT OF N.G.O.'s MOVEMENT
Inspried by Jain Muni Chandrashekharji & other saints - NGO's like Ahimsa Research Foundation, Viniyog Parivar, Beauty Without Cruelty and other N.G.O.'s strongly opposed the removal of banon export of beef and setting up of slaughter houses across the country as recommended in the 10th Five year Plan.
An alarm call raised by them almost a year ago yields a nation wide awakening and action to protect the enormous Animal Wealth of our country.
This campaign picked up a momentum and the result was that a letter was received from Dr. N. Das (Advisor of Planning Commission - Govt. of India) in the favour of "Animal Welfare Society of India” Letter is quoted as :• As per existing procedure, the Animal Husbandry
Department will examine various recommendations and decide on the schemes. No new scheme regarding meat sector has been received from the Animal Husbandry Department. No decision has been taken by the Planning Commission regarding accepting the recommendations of the Sub-Group. There is also no proposal to sanction any new schemes for the Meat Sector.
