A Christian group in India’s Kerala state has called for promoting non-halal meat among community members rather than the halal meat popular among the Muslim community.
The Christian League is planning to create awareness among Christians about the meat they consume and wants shops to specify what sort of meat they are selling to ensure that Christians get non-halal meat.
“Christians should know what meat are they eating,” said Murphy Thomas, chairman of the inter-denominational league, which claims to address issues concerning the Christian community in the southern state.
“We know many Christians eat halal meat, which has religious importance to Muslims, and therefore we want Christians to avoid it and be aware of shops that sell non-halal meat,” Thomas told on Jan. 13.
