Guest guest Posted July 31, 2002 Report Share Posted July 31, 2002 I feel so sorry for the racing horses and i don`t know whether any animal group could do a video to expose the true story of racing horses? In 1983 when Prime Minister`s party was in power (he was a junior minister then) they have Banned Killing of Buffaloes and killing of all female cattle by a cabinet decision. Very recently On the 22nd of April 2002 Minister S.B.Dissanayake the Agriculture Minister has directed the Director General of Animal Production of Health to write a letter to all chief secretaries to inform all veterinary surgeons saying that the Ministry has lift the ban imposed by the cabinet decision of 1983 prohibiting killing of female cattle and buffaloes .This is a wrong thing .Mr S.B.Dissanayake can`t cancel a decision taken by a cabinet .On the other hand other cabinet Ministers like Minister of Justice didn`t even know about that till I inform them. Minister of Justice has directed my letter to the Agriculture Minister. Sri Lanka is a Buddhist country Prime Minister started a golden fence around JayaSri Mahabodi tree. Lord Buddha never expected such things. He wanted all animals to live in peace. Minister S.B.Dissanayake who secretly lift the ban has helped Muslim and Christian butchers.As a result there are large numbers of cattle thieves. Export of meat was started by the previous government and that is a sin according to the Buddhist teachings. Please request the Prime Minister Ranil Wickramsinghe to ban killing of Buffaloes and all female cattle and export of meat,and home slaughter and include them to cattle ordinance. e.mail pm_sec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
