So you can't slaughter a cow in Maharashtra, but you can do it outside and eat it here? And no one finds this hypocritical or absurd? #beef

So, the slaughter of cows in other states does not hurt the religious sentiments of anyone in Maharashtra. Cool! #beef

Lucky to be in Tamilnadu, Just had #beef gravy. Sorry Maharashtra, No water is not a problem, #beef is really a problem.

It's bizarre. You can have possession but you can't slaughter a cow and eat? Does it even make sense? #beef #beefban https://t.co/7iY3xUehAu

Ridiculous decision by #BombayHC that outside #beef allowed. In such case outside liquor must b allowed in gujrat bihar like dry states

Absurd Judiciary Logic !!
Slaughtering for Beef is illegal but bringing #beef from outside Maharashtra is allowed.!https://t.co/Jzb33jzPkp
