Pink Revolution in India

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Pink Revolution in India refers to a tag by prime minister Narendra Modi criticizing the Indian government's then-existing favor for cattle meat production over India's already-increasing buffalo meat production, a favor that allegedly created fake cattle production subsidies.

Buffalo meat exports[]

Indian exports of buffalo meat had been 11.08 lakh tonnes in the period 2012–13, amounting to US$2.3 billion.[1] Uttar Pradesh was the top buffalo meat-producing state with 3 lakh tonne produced in 2011. From 2009 to 2013, India beef exports had risen 44%.[2]
