"Imposing a maximum prison sentence of 10 years for slaughtering a cow and five years for selling the meat, the state of Haryana’s legislation is in line with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his ruling Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party’s crackdown on beef consumption... Since his election in 2014, Modi has stressed the importance of Hinduism to India’s identity.... In Mewat, a majority Muslim district, the recently formed Cow Protection Task Force heard rumors that street vendors were cooking their biryani with beef... the police lab has yet to publish findings... on whether the rice dishes contained the outlawed meat."
