Karnataka halal meat row: After the hijab controversy in Karnataka, a new controversy has started regarding halal meat. On calls by right-wing groups to ban Muslim traders from temple festivals, Biocon chief Kiran Mazumdar Shaw has urged Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai to address the growing religious divide in the state at the earliest, otherwise, the country will be devastated by this communalism. The Karnataka-ruled BJP has accused Majumdar of giving it a political color.
Kiran Shaw is the first major corporate leader to publicly express concern, days after the Karnataka government cited an old rule barring non-Hindus from doing business on temple premises. Kiran Mazumdar Shaw tweeted, "Karnataka has always had inclusive economic growth and we should not allow this kind of communal boycott - if ITBT (Information Technology & Biotechnology) becomes communal it will destroy our global leadership CM BS Bommai please resolve this growing religious divide."
Malviya's reply to Kiran Mazumdar
BJP leader Amit Malviya, who heads the BJP's IT cell, slammed Kiran Mazumdar on social media and termed her statement as politically biased. Amit Malviya wrote, "It is unfortunate that people like Kiran Shaw impose their personal, politically colored opinions, and mix it with India's leadership in the ITBT sector. Rahul Bajaj once said something similar to Gujarat It is a major automobile manufacturing center today. Go and see the figures."
Amit Malviya further writes, "Nice to see Kiran Shaw waking up to the religious divide in Karnataka. Did she speak when a militant minority demanded priority of the hijab over education or did the Congress withdraw from Hindu institutions to non-Hindus? He made the rules except that. He helped the Congress draft its manifesto?"
VHP and Bajrang Dal have raised the demand
Groups like Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) and Bajrang Dal have demanded a ban on Muslim traders on temple premises. This campaign has blacklisted some temples to Muslim traders. Though the state government largely refrained from commenting on the matter, on behalf of the government, CM Basavaraj Bommai told the assembly that the ban on non-Hindu vendors working on the temple premises was enacted under the Karnataka Hindu Religious Institutions and Charitable Endowment Act of 2002. , based on a rule under 1997.
The demand for a ban on Muslim traders near temples is being seen as retaliation to the hijab controversy, with Muslim girl students across the state fighting for their right to wear headscarves in class. A few months back, there was a lot of uproar in Karnataka schools over the hijab controversy. To which the Karnataka High Court recently backed the state government's order banning the hijab in classrooms, saying that the hijab "is not a necessary religious practice in Islam". After the decision of the Karnataka High Court, the matter is not yet settled a new dispute has started in the state regarding Halal meat.
