Kerala BJP Candidate Promises “Quality Beef” if Voted to Power

“My words have been distorted. I am against cow slaughter,” candidate from Malappuram said on Monday.

A day after kicking up a storm with his "quality beef" remark, Sreeprakash, the BJP candidate in the Malappuram by-poll on Monday made it clear that he was against cow slaughter and he stood by the party's national policy on the matter, even as the state leadership said a clarification would be sought from him.

Sreeprakash had reportedly said in Malappuram on Sunday that he would offer "quality beef" in the district if voted to Parliament in the 12 April by-poll and that slaughterhouses would be made air-conditioned to ensure the quality of meat.
