Unscrupulous business practices like artificial cow-fattening truly taint the spirit of Eid-ul-Azha. Knowingly causing such damage to public health in order to hike up the price of cows is a crime, and must be dealt with swiftly. The use of antibiotics, growth hormones, harmful chemicals, and steroids is prohibited by the Animal Feed Act 2010. For a safe and happy Eid-ul-Azha for all, it is important to ensure that the public is not swindled at the cattle market. It is imperative that we make sure law and order is upheld in the cattle market, and offenders are brought to book.
