New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Tuesday, May 26, refused to grant urgent hearing of a public interest litigation (PIL) seeking effective implementation of the law imposing a complete ban on cow slaughter ahead of Bakrid.
“You remembered this a day before. No urgency. Thanks,” said a bench of Chief Justice of India Surya Kant and Justice Joymalya Bagchi.
Advocate Barun Kumar Sinha mentioned the matter before the bench, seeking an urgent hearing. “We are seeking a hearing so that if your lordships are persuaded, an interim order can be passed,” he orally submitted.
“Day after tomorrow is Bakrid. This is a plea to seek implementation of anti-cow slaughter law. If this can be listed tomorrow,” Sinha said.
The plea, filed by Satish Kumar Aggarwal, former vice-president of the Akhil Bharat Hindu Mahasabha, seeks directions to enforce anti-slaughter laws to protect the cow and its progeny from slaughter. It also wants a direction to state governments to notify guidelines for regulating slaughterhouses in each and every state in accordance with law.
