Our petition worked.
Animal sacrifice banned during Nepal festival
Gadhimai festivalis a month-longHindufestival that is held every five years at the Gadhimai temple ofBariyarpur, inBara District, about 100 miles (160km) south of the capitalKathmanduin southernNepal, near the Indo-Nepal border by mostly bordering Indians and Madheshi people. The event involves the world's largestsacrificial slaughter of animals(approx. 300,000 - 500,000 as of last event)in 2009 includingwater buffaloes, pigs, goats, chicken, rats, and pigeons – with the goal of pleasingGadhimai, thegoddessof power.
Iam a Hindu and no sacred Hindu text be it Gita,upanishads and all other vedas mention about animal sacrifice and the cows andBuffaloes are equivalent to our Mothers.
Pl watch this You tube video and I must caution you its very graphic and disturbing to any one and tears will follow.
