India Today Impact: Ghaziabad SDM asks for CD of Operation Slaughterhouse investigation
After India Today recorded extreme animal abuse at the Dasna slaughterhouse of Al Nasir Exports, Ghaziabad Sub-Divisional Magistrate Prem Ranjan has asked for the CD of the sting operation.
After an India Today investigation - Operation Slaughterhouse - revealed how Uttar Pradesh's meat industry is butchering CM Yogi Adityanath's clampdown on illegal slaughterhouses, Ghaziabad Sub-Divisional Magistrate Prem Ranjan has asked for the CD of the sting operation.
At the sprawling Al Nasir abattoir in Ghaziabad's Dasna, India Today's undercover team witnessed a horrific sight: Hundreds of buffaloes, their babies lying on a blood-spattered floor, their throats slashed by primitive swords. Conscious of their surroundings, the animals and their offspring were killed in front of one another in a gross breach of anti-cruelty laws.
But the company makes tall claims about compliance with international standards for slaughtering, bragging about its quality controls. It boasts on its website that it is a global leader in frozen halal, buffalo meat.
