Cow should be declared the national animal of India, Allahabad High Court said on September 1. The court said its protection should be part of the fundamental rights of the Hindu community. The court said the animal had an important part to play in Indian culture and was revered as a mother across the country. The court denied bail to a 59-year-old Muslim from Uttar Pradesh's Sambhal district who was arrested in March this year for allegedly slaughtering a cow. Allahabad High Court concluded that if released, he would commit the same crime again. “Fundamental rights are not only the prerogative of beef eaters but also of those who worship the cow and are economically dependent on them,” Justice Shekhar Kumar Yadav said.
