Prabhupāda: Why the government should keep slaughterhouse?
Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: You asked them that in Mauritius, I remember. The government started a chicken slaughterhouse. You said, “Why the government should have slaughterhouse?” And they replied, “They will kill them anyway. There are so many Muslims.” Prabhupāda said, “Let them kill, but why the government should support this slaughter?”
Prabhupāda: Let them kill at their house. Especially chicken, anyone can kill.

NABADWIP: The Nabadwip municipality on Monday refused to shelve a Rs 1.5-crore project to build an abattoir in a 10-cottah plot on Manipur Road in the face of opposition from BJP and religious heads.
The fate of the project, approved by the Centre in 2014 and for which Rs 15 lakh or 10% of the promised 60% central funds have already been disbursed, became uncertain after state minister Ujjal Biswas reportedly suggested at a meeting of local religious heads a day before in Mayapur that a wholesale vegetable market could be built at the same spot.
However, the municipality and the local Trinamool MLA are refusing to buckle in, saying the abattoir is being built only to stop open slaughter of animals on Nabadwip streets.
