Union Minister Giriraj Singh has penned a letter to Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, labeling the halal business as “treason” in India’s secular democracy. He advocates for a ban on the production, storage, distribution, and sale of food products with halal certification in Bihar, similar to Uttar Pradesh. Singh, a BJP MP and Rural Development minister, expresses concern about non-Islamic entities getting Islamized through halal certification. He criticizes self-proclaimed institutions issuing certificates for hefty amounts, urging action to prevent the trend. The letter underscores Singh’s stance on preserving the secular fabric and preventing undue influence of religious practices in non-religious matters.
