We worship the cow, and we torture it no end. When people talk about desi gai ka doodh (milk from the Indian cow), desi gai ka ghee (clarified butter from the Indian cow), they do not even know what they are doing to the creature they call as ‘mother’.
Is this the kind of behavior you met out to your mother—milk her, put a noose around her neck, leash her to a pole or to a nail or something, and then keep milking her? Artificially inseminate her, and then leave her to her fate once she becomes old and infertile and dry?
