'Starving Bangladesh of beef' would cost India $5 Billion

Smuggling cattle from India to Pakistan was also very active about a decade ago, especially across punjab. i don't know if the situation has improved now.

Pakistans milk and meat production has been increasing.Bangladesh does not have many cows and hence they try to import from india(through smuggling).Some reports say that 3 out of 4 cows slaughtered in BD are from india.

Indian cattle was smuggled to Pakistan a 20 years ago but now Pakistan is self-sufficient. Now there are reports that Pakistani cattle is smuggled into Afghanistan. These Indians themselves sell these cows to the smugglers, BSF gets a cut and beef is consumed in Bangladesh. The Indian ban will increase beef prices in Bangladesh and it will became profitable for Bangladeshi farmers to raise cow herds for beef consumption.

These people should not be getting Indian products at such a low price. They should legally import from India and must pay international price. We are not here for charity.

Call me ignorant, but aren't we exporting cows/buffaloes legally to BD? If not, why not?

These old cows are past their prime, not producing milk and uneconomical to Indian dairy producers and farmers. The these old cows will not sell India due to ban on cow slaughter so they are smuggled to Bangladesh for beef. It is actually bringing billions of dollars into Indian economy.

There is no nation wide ban on cow slaughtering. It is application is some states only. In West Bengal it is permitted after obtaining a certificate from authorities. Why should we sell at cheap prices to these people. They must buy legally and must pay full price.

There must be a reason why 4 of the bordering Bangladesh, Indian states earn more than their respective surrounding states. It tells a lot how much these states are dependent on trade with Bangladesh.

If i have read it correctly, the smuggled Cow inside Bangladesh just cost INR1500 only??
Pakistan and India should sign a proper trade deal on this. I can safely say that even at INR 10000 per Cow/Buffalo/Bull, our traders will be happily buying from you.

Some of these crazy people who call cows gau mata would go Indian equivalent of Jihad on India and the world. Their brains are fried.

lame,
i expect u to come up with some better explanation.
whats wrong with govt.???asking bsf to clamp down cattle smuggling,,,,,why not all kinds of smuggling,drugs n human included(yes that is happening too).cow has become more important an issue thn illegal immigration tht home ministry has to point out cattle smuggling of all the sh#t that happens along tht border...if anything they shud regulate the trade n make profit out of it
You are free to do that. Steal/extort the cows or round up the lay cows in the states and send them off legally to Bangladesh. The Home Minister is putting a cap on the illegal smuggling alone.

You people might want to read about Aktion T4. Google it up. Saved money.

Please india stop all export of cows to Bangladesh now. This will raise the price of beef in Bangladesh, and stimulate the growth of the dairy/meat industry in Bangladesh. A win win situation for both nations, india can live knowing they are saving cows from slaughter, and Bangladesh can build their meat industry and save $billions from going into the indian economy.

The Hindutva brigade won't allow cow smuggling/exports so Bangladesh should build its own cow herds for beef production. This will create employment in Bangladesh and money will stay in the country. While it will cost India to feed and maintain uneconomical dairy cows and bulls to their natural life. It is the Indian farmers and dairy producers that sell these cows why don't they be first prosecuted ?

physical hardwork is very difficult for chronic beef eaters,so who is going to do the hardwork.

That's 5 billion dollars extra for Pakistan. We must make sure our Bangla friends always have access to juicy beef ribs.

transport kaise karega bhai?

5 billions are nothing in front of innocent animals lives.

Yes stop all export of cows to Bangladesh now! Ban all slaughter of cows throughout india....stop all leather production....ban leather shoes...or belts.

I fully support the ban of any cow export and smuglling to Bangladesh. Pride before profit! Let Bangladeshis raise their own beef industry....and gain dominance in the $220b leather market like they have achieved in the garments market.

As a Bangladeshi i fully support you in this.
