Cow protection The constitution in the wisdom of framers of the document provides for protection It is considered holy and revered and it does not affect any one.Cows. after their useful , productive, period have been slaughtered giving income to the owners The constitution does not empower overzealous bakts to lynch people to death in most inhuman way in the name of cow. When cowssalas or protective homes are provided for such cows ,the owners need to be compensated. It costs to maitain after ther productive period is over and it is not economical. .The conditions in these shelters are pathetic as has been shown.Those who run are not bakts but motivated by profits and not love for the sacred animal .The cow received this status due to life sustaining milk as byproduct.One ex chief Justice of India has openly declared that he does not believe that cow is God and not one person had expressed dissent or vandalized his home. If cow is so sacred and is to be adored and worshipped then every loyal Hindu should adopt one to show their reverence and devotion Now in comparison what reverence and respect we should givev to .women We owe our very existence to them. She is a giver of life.Women are raped ,murdered for dowry ,trafficked. GIRLS are killed before birth.The conditions of widows , destitutes are pathetic and no homes for them are established . Women are treated as slaves at home.Girls are denied education, health care because they are considered as liability. Does women need to be wotshipped adored more than the cow,? The cow has shelter in old age, where are the provisions for elderly, widows, destitutes .No grants for their upkeep and maintenance She is mo more a Devi.The example of Devi status is withdrawn after pubity and no one will even come closer or look at her later. SHE is an untouchable , forsaken ,who was once adored and worshipped In India does cow receive preferential treatment more than woman ,mother, sister, girl ? Or she is just an object of lust devoid of respect and gratitude for role We adore worship many deities as Devies but in real life the position of women is despicable In recent times with legislation , education employment, dowry and child marriages, sex detremination test bans, women empowerment, doles etc their lot has improved but not respect due to them
