A significant controversy recently erupted after Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Member of Parliament and former Union Minister Maneka Gandhi accused the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) of allegedly selling cows from its gaushalas (cow shelters) to butchers.
Gandhi voiced her concerns in a video statement that has since gone viral, saying, "ISKCON establishes gaushalas and earns unlimited benefits from the government in the form of huge lands." She went on to say, "Nobody sells more cows to butchers than ISKCON." They are the ones who walk down the street chanting 'Hare Rama Hare Krishna' and claim that their entire life is dependent on milk."
Maneka Gandhi is well-known for her staunch support for animal rights, and her allegations have helped spark a significant controversy, raising concerns about the treatment of cows in ISKCON-run Gaushalas.
The ISKCON organization, which is known for its spiritual and cultural activities, has been actively involved in cow protection and conservation efforts through its gaushalas. They insist that their primary goal is to provide a safe haven for cows and bulls.
The controversy has sparked debates on social media and in political circles, with some calling for a thorough investigation into the allegations made by Maneka Gandhi. Others believe this incident highlights the importance of transparency and accountability in organizations that run cow shelters.
As the allegations and denials continue to circulate, this controversy remains a source of intense public scrutiny, with many eagerly awaiting further developments in the unfolding story surrounding ISKCON and its gaushalas.
