The Quint: Troubled by Crackdown UP Meat Sellers Go on an Indefinite Strike

Meat sellers across Uttar Pradesh go on an indefinite strike from Monday against the crackdown on illegal and mechanised slaughterhouses. “The government must allow renewal of existing licenses,” said one of the meat sellers at the protest.
Under pressure, UP government issues a hasty clarification. During Question Hour in the Lok Sabha, Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi said the export of buffalo meat had gone down and China was not allowing the import of Indian buffalo meat.
