Goat meat from Rajasthan, not dog meat, clarifies Karnataka Home Minister on complaints [Video]

Karnataka Home Minister G. Parameshwara on Sunday clarified that the meat brought from Rajasthan to Bengaluru is not dog meat but goat meat, as confirmed by a lab report, and termed the complaint made in this regard as one with “malicious intent”.

Addressing reporters in Davanagere, the minister, responding to the allegations regarding the sale of dog meat in Bengaluru, said that the lab report confirmed it was goat meat. He claimed that the complaint was made with unnecessary and malicious intent.

“Bringing meat from Rajasthan and selling it is the profession of the persons involved. They sell meat once a week, or once every 15 days. The report confirmed that it is goat meat, not dog meat,” Parameshwara said.

Some groups alleged on Friday evening that dog meat was being supplied to Bengaluru hotels from Rajasthan.
