AIMIM leader throws 'biryani party' to protest meat ban on Independence Day in Maharashtra
All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) leader Imtiaz Jaleel on Friday organised a "biryani party" at his residence in Maharashtra's Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar to protest against the local civic body's meat ban in the city due to Independence Day and Janmashtami. Imtiaz Jaleel had earlier invited all Municipal Corporation commissioners to "join the Chicken Biryani and Mutton Korma party" at his residence. (X/@imtiaz_jaleel) The Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar Municipal Corporation on Tuesday announced the closure of all shops, slaughterhouses, and outlets selling meat within city limits on two days, August 15 and 20, news agency PTI reported. The country is celebrating its 79th Independence Day and Janmashtami, a Hindu festival to celebrate the birth of Lord Krishna, on Friday. Meanwhile, 'Paryushan Parva', a significant festival of the Jain community that is marked by fasting and prayer, begins on August 20. To protest the meat ban, AIMIM leader and former MP Jaleel held a biryani party at his residence to oppose the ban on meat sales. "I have cooked chicken biryani along with a vegetarian dish. If the municipal commissioner comes and asks for vegetarian food, then I will offer it to him. But the government should not tell us what we should eat and what we should not," he said. ALSO READ | Meat ban orders on Independence Day spark political row, Owaisi leads opposition The leader from the Asaduddin Owaisi-led party said that such things should be stopped, terming the meat ban decision as "unfortunate". Earlier on Thursday, Jaleel extended an invitation to all Municipal Corporation commissioners to join the "join the Chicken Biryani and Mutton Korma party organized at my residence at 1 PM on August 15". The Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Shri @Dev_Fadnavis, will also be present on this occasion. (India is a free and democratic country, and Maharashtra is not a dictator-ruled state). This party is being organized solely to remind those who still have not understood the meaning of freedom," he added in his post on X. AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi also slammed the Hyderabad municipal body's ban on meat sales, calling it "callous and unconstitutional". ALSO READ | Civic bodies are only following the meat ban imposed by Congress in 1988: CM Fadnavis "What's the connection between eating meat and celebrating Independence Day? 99% of Telangana's people eat meat. These meat bans violate people's right to liberty, privacy, livelihood, culture, nutrition, and religion," he said in a post on X. AIMIM leader slams CM Fadnavis He also hit out at chief minister Devendra Fadnavis over the matter and said that if the CM had directed the commissioner to withdraw the order, the issue would have ended there. "They say we can eat (meat) but it will not be made available in the market. What is the government trying to gain by issuing such orders?" Jaleel asked. Earlier on Wednesday, CM Fadnavis said the state government was not interested in regulating people's food choices, describing the whole row over meat shop closures as an "unnecessary" controversy. When it was pointed out that the ban on meat was imposed on the occasion of Janmashtami, the AIMIM leader went on to question whether the festival is being celebrated in selective districts only. "Hindus across the state are celebrating it. Had the government adopted a policy in this regard, then we would have respected it," he added. Jaleel further asked, "There are few over-enthusiastic municipal commissioners who issued these orders to make the government have only two festivals (Ramzan and Bakri Eid). Will the government shut the liquor shops on these two festivals of the Muslim community?" Row over meat sales ban Other than Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, municipal corporations in Nagpur, Nashik, and Malegaon also issued similar orders, resulting in controversy and protests over personal freedom. Other parties in the Opposition bloc have also criticised the move, with the BJP arguing that the policy of shutting down meat shops on Independence Day was first implemented in 1988 by the then chief minister, NCP(SP) supremo Sharad Pawar. The BJP asked whether the opposition would question the legendary politician about it. Congress workers were also seen protesting in Mumbai against the Kalyan-Dombivali Municipal Corporation's order banning the sale of meat on Independence Day.

Ganeshotsav Mandals should create awareness about Operation Sindoor: Maha CM
Mumbai: Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Wednesday asked the Ganeshotsav Mandals to create awareness about the power shown by India to the world through Operation Sindoor and the use of indigenous products during this year's Ganesh festival. He appealed to the public Ganeshotsav Mandals to celebrate this Ganeshotsav in a peaceful and enthusiastic atmosphere in coordination with the administration, and also expressed the hope that the scenes based on 'Operation Sindoor' would be dedicated to the jawans. At the meeting to review the law and order situation, Fadnavis also instructed the administration to take necessary actions so that Ganesh devotees do not face any problems during the Ganesh festival. Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar, Minister of Skill, Employment, Entrepreneurship and Innovation Mangalprabhat Lodha, Minister of State for Home (Rural) Pankaj Bhoyar, Minister of State for Home (Urban) Yogesh Kadam and Chief Secretary Rajesh Kumar were present. He gave instructions to give permission to idol makers for five consecutive years, like the public Ganeshotsav Mandals. He said that the idol makers should renew these licenses every year. For permission, one should take advantage of the computerised system-based one-window scheme launched by the Municipal Corporation, he added. He also gave instructions to increase the number of artificial lakes for immersion of Ganesh idols and the number of boats for immersion of tall idols in the deep sea on the seashore. Fadnavis said that the state government has given Ganeshotsav the status of a state festival. Therefore, a large-scale and detailed plan has been made by the state government to celebrate this festival. All the concessions given to Ganeshotsav mandals last year will be maintained this year as well. The law should be followed properly while celebrating this festival. 'Since Eid-e-Milad festival also falls during Ganeshotsav, care should be taken to ensure that law and order does not deteriorate anywhere by maintaining religious harmony. Positive action will be taken under the court to extend the days of permission given to loudspeakers during Ganeshotsav,' he added. According to the government release, it was decided at today's meeting that the property tax will not be levied on the offices of the public Ganeshotsav Mandals, which will convey to the administration in writing that their offices are not being used for commercial purposes.
