Bengaluru/New Delhi: Close on the heel of the PM openly talking of his stand against cow vigilante groups, a Gau Rakshak Dal from Karnataka has written to the PM on Sunday demanding stern action against those indulging into cow slaughter.

As per a CNN-News18 report, the Hindu national organisation demanded PM Modi to raise punishment for cow slaughter and also sought enactment of central anti-cow slaughter act.

On Saturday, Modi asked state governments to prepare a dossier of people who are ‘running shops’ in the name of cow protection and put so-called ‘gau rakshaks’ on a tight leash.

Amid the continuing outrage over the brutal flogging of four Dalit men by cow brigade members in Gujarat, the Prime Minister also asserted that real cow protectors do not terrorise people.
