Some of the global "liberal" concerns do not work very well in the Indian context, for instance the Environment debate or the abortion issue. It seems the animal welfare folks from the Plant and Animals Welfare Society (PAWS) are hitting some unexpected roadblocks as well:
...We pleaded with them for help, but in vain," said Bhanage. She said one of the officers was Prabhakar Bargav, who was on an official motorcycle (MH 05 AN 1299). Realising that police were not going to intervene, Bhanage said, the butchers turned violent and assaulted her and Parinita Joshi, another PAWS volunteer. The duo was beaten by nearly 25 men, she added. The male volunteers were restrained from helping the women.
Joshi added, "To top this they strangled one calf in front of us to tell us that we would be treated similarly if we didn't back off." The drama lasted for half an hour and in the end, the attackers put all the calves in a truck and left. [
