3:02Now PlayingSC Bench led by Hon’ble J. Sanjay Kishan Kaul questioned the motive of the petitioner and observed that the Top court cannot interfere with the eating habits of people.
”This Court cannot determine who can be a vegetarian or non-vegetarian. Those who want to eat Halal meat can eat Halal meat. Those who want to eat Jhatka meat can eat Jhatka meat” the bench noted, which also comprised Hon’ble J. Dinesh Maheshwari said
The bench also observed that such a petition was “mischievous in character”
The court was hearing a petition filed by an organisation, Akhand Bharat Morcha, challenging Section 28 of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act
The section provides that killing of an animal in a manner required by the religion of any community will not be an offence under the Prevention of Cruelty to animals act
Petitioner argued that the killing of animals by Halal method is painful for the animal and such exemptions under Section 28 in a secular country should not be allowed.
