By Whom Contents of Resolution Remarks Shri Vijay “Having regard to the fact that— (Admitted, Jawaharlal secured first Darda (i) the Supreme Court of India, place in the th in its Judgment delivered on 29 draw of lot) March 2006, had issued directions to the Government of India, to review the meat export policy in the light of Constitution’s Directive Principles of State Policy and also its potentially harmful effects on livestock population, and its impact on the economy of the country; (ii) on 3rd May 2007, the Ministry of Commerce and Industry had issued an Office Memorandum reiterating continuance of the then existing policy, primary thrust of their arguments being generation of employment, foreign exchange earnings, avoidable rise in the number of so-called unproductive animals, etc.; (iii) the main petitioners, led by His Holiness Jain Acharya Vijay Ratnasundarsuri Maharaj Saheb submitted their well documented arguments, comprising 13 chapters, covering all vital aspects, to the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, stating that the Ministry has failed to 5 conduct the requisite review exercise taking into consideration the concerns of the Supreme Court, both in respect of Directive Principles of the State Policy and the potentially harmful effects of the Meat Export Policy; (iv) the Ministry of Commerce & Industry claimed to have consulted the Ministries of Law and Justice, Agriculture (Department of Animal Husbandry), Food Processing, Environment & Forests, etc., before issuing the continuance orders of the Meat Export Policy in their OM dated 3.5.2007; (v) the petitioners, after having obtained, through RTI, copies of communications from above- mentioned Ministries/Departments and after making in-depth studies, stated that these were perfunctory routine pieces of advice which seem to have no pertinence to the crucial issues as these completely overlooked the concerns expressed and directions given to the Government of India in the Judgment of the 20th March 2006 of the Supreme Court; (vi) the petitioners stressing contention upon the Ministry of Commerce and Industry that just for the sake of export of 8 percent of country’s total meat production, the Government is following the meat export policy, leading to avoidable increase in the number of slaughter houses; 6 (vii) international standards for export quality meat necessitated slaughtering of young and healthy animals, and thereby blatantly violating the local State Governments’ laws prohibiting slaughter of such animals; (viii) slaughtering of animals has been depriving the country of dung availability and thus Government has no option but to resort to use of chemical fertilizers and chemical pesticides, thereby damaging the fertility of soil, polluting agricultural farms, water, air and foodgrains, apart from creating health hazards; (ix) petitioners corroborating their well-structured arguments through factual presentation of their position, stated that a buffalo yields 5.4 tons of dung per annum and slaughtering of 51,00,000 buffaloes would be required for five years to obtain 5,61,000 MT tone of meat for export in the next five years, and that during this five-year period, conversion of 1377 lakh tons of dung would be producing 2754 lakh tons of organic manure, which may fulfill the requirement of 918 lakh acres of agriculture corps; (x) slaughtering has further led to huge avoidable expenditure on subsidies on fertilizers, chemicals, pesticides, etc. being sustained by the Government of India by nearly one 7 lakh crores of rupees of taxpayers money, this House urges upon the Government to - (a) immediately scrap the “Meat Export Policy” which is catering to the economic ambitions of a few but causing an irreversible situation of depletion of national animal wealth, especially at the cost of our young and healthy animals; (b) take effective steps towards avoiding acute shortage of useful animals happening through slaughtering for production of meat for exports, which is adversely affecting the over all availability of essential commodities and becoming a major contributory factor towards rise in prices of foodgrains, milk, etc.; (c) strictly observe, in letter and spirit, the provisions of the article 51 A of Indian Constitution which lay emphasis on compassion for all living creatures so that Government being a role model for observing fundamental duties, is not seen as the violator of fundamental duties; (d) stop violation of various State Governments’ Animal Preservation Laws which impose restrictions for slaughtering based on age and utility of animals and also prohibiting inter- state transport of animals for slaughter; 8 (e) strictly enforce the already existing ban on slaughter of cow and its progeny for meat export, as the continuance of the existing Meat Export Policy is leading to large scale opening of clandestine slaughter houses, under the garb of slaughter of buffaloes for export of meat, but actually slaughtering cow and its progeny also; (f) accept the Law Commission’s recommendations

IADC has been pleased to note that India has been implementing major reforms in various sectors in the past few years, with a view to increase the “ease of doing business” in the country and this has resulted in India being recognized as one of the top 10 improvers and moving up 30 positions to the 100th rank, as per the World Bank’s recent Doing Business 2018 report.
