The crackdown on illegal slaughter houses in Uttar Pradesh is possibly inspiring other Hindutva organisations and political parties in states run by the BJP government.

According to ACP-PRO of Gurgaon Police Manish Sehgal, these shops have commercial license to sell meat and strict action will be taken against those forcing closure of shops illegally.
