Movement against “Karnataka Prevention of Slaughter and Preservation of
Cattle Bill – 2010”

A PROTEST RALLY AGAINST THE FASCIST MOVE OF THE BJP GOVERNMENT

On 28 June 2010, Monday at 10 am

Shivaji nagar Grounds, Behind Shivaji nagar Bus Stand, Bangalore

The BJP government of Karnataka has once again demonstrated that it will
continue to implement its fascist, communal agenda by obtaining the approval
of the Karnataka assembly for its bill on cow slaughter by using its
majority in the house. Now it wants to introduce the bill in the Legislative
Council on 28th June, 2010 for approval so that it could be imposed on the
people of the state.

The bill is out and out an anti people measure when it becomes a law all the
farmers and those with non-vegetarian food habits will be in trouble more
than the beef eaters. If at all any one has any right to speak of cattle it
is only the people who have been caring for them. These groups include the
Dalits, the Adivasis and other backward communities. They sell the cattle
when they find it difficult to maintain them in their old age. A federation
of all right-thinking, democratic, progressive people, and organizations has
been formed to oppose this anti-democratic, anti-people move of the
government in Karnataka to stop the government in through demonstrations and
public meetings throughout the state which will culminate in a state level
convention against the proposed bill. On 28th June 2010, the day the
government wishes to introduce the bill in the legislative council a huge
protest will be held at Shivajinagar Grounds, Bangalore

We appeal to all democratic forces and individuals to participate in the
protest and make the government know that it cannot go against the will of
the people.
