Hindus must stop eating mutton because Gandhi considered goat as mother: BJP Bengal Vice President
Kolkata, July 31: West Bengal Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Vice President and Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose's grandnephew Chandra Kumar Bose has stirred a controversy with his bizarre remarks.
Amidst the raging debate over Gau-mata and consumption of beef across the country, Bose has said that Hindus must consider Goat as their mother and stop eating mutton as Gandhiji used to consume Goat's milk.
Bose tweeted, "Gandhiji used to stay in my grandfather -Sarat Chandra Bose's house at 1 Woodburn Park in Kolkata. He demanded goat's milk! Two goats brought to the house for this purpose. Gandhi protector of Hindus treated goats as Mata by consuming goats milk. Hindus stop eating goat's meat"
Meanwhile senior BJP leader and Tripura Governor Tathagata Roy has publicly censored Bose over his remarks.
He tweeted, "Neither Gandhiji nor your grandfather ever said goats were Mata-that's your conclusion. Nor did Gandhiji (or anyone else) ever proclaim that he was the protector of Hindus. We Hindus regard the cow as our mother,not the goat. Please don't peddle such rot."
