Lucknow, March 29: The crackdown on slaughterhouses that gained momentum in Uttar Pradesh is now spreading to other BJP-governed states in the country. Following in the footsteps of Yogi Adityanath, Rajasthan, Uttarakhand, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand and Madhya Pradesh have begun shutting down illegal slaughterhouses.

Three meat shops were sealed in Haridwar and 11 others were asked to shut down in Raipur and while notice was served to one shop in Indore. Close to 4,000 illegal shops face closure in Jaipur with the Municipal Corporation announcing clamp down on unauthorised shops and slaughterhouses from April.

The Jharkhand government on Monday had given a 72-hour deadline for all illegal abattoirs to shut down. Crackdown in Uttar Pradesh seems to have encouraged the governments in other states to initiate action against illegal abattoirs. The crackdown in Uttar Pradesh has already created a meat crisis which is expected to only worsen with meat traders calling for a strike.
