Shia Muslims form 'Gau Rakshak Dal' in Uttar Pradesh
A group of Shia Muslims on Friday formed a 'Shia Gau Raksha Dal' in Uttar Pradesh stating that they would work towards educating people on cow protection. Notably, the All India Shia Personal Law Board (AISPLB) had earlier issued a fatwa against cow slaughtering. AISPLB member Maulana Yasoob Abbas said cow slaughter often triggered communal tension in the country.
