How Dhaka streets transformed into blood

[TopCat]

BD can still flood with blood even without Indian cow. Indian should worry about that not the bloof itsrlf.

wtf? this smell wont go away for days i think.

Good question. I get that qurbani is a religious requirement, but it's beyond disgusting that these people slaughter animals in their homes and streets. Absolutely unfathomable!

But this is the 21st century, These kind of practices may well have been relatively fine centuries ago when such big cities and density of the populace wasn't there,

Not against any important religious practices but there should be designated area's for such, I mean you dont hear such horrible incidents in much larger Muslim nations who i'm sure do practice sacrifice.. Authorities in Dhaka need to make stringent laws in view of the health hazard.. It's unthinkable, Looks like the scenes out of a biblical catastrophe

The same is the case with Pakistan. It's just that it rained in dhaka that day.

Imagine the stench, the whole city stinks as it is, now add blood to the mix!

Shit. That looks seriously disgusting. Even Karachi looks far better on Eid day than that.

I don't think it rains in Karachi that much....but I'll agree, Karachi is not half as congested....Dhaka needs to expand....

The City Corporation will clear it out within 48 hours using chemicals and water. Almost 70% was cleared by this morning. Don't worry.

Are you suggesting people sacrifice chickens or live off of Tofu? I don't think you'll find a lot of takers for those ideas. Although I'm fine with it - being more or less a 'Veg' person.

This has become a prestige issue. People aren't even satisfied with sacrificing goats anymore. A cow costs twice in Dhaka what it costs in Pakistan. Still in demand though....

Yes 'these horrible incidents happen in all larger Muslim nations'. But it doesn't rain elsewhere as much as it does here either....

One thing they could do is ban the sacrifices inside people's houses. They could have this done at licensed abattoirs and this may be the trend of the future.

Mind your own damn bussines. It is in our religion. Whether you like it or not. We shall keep on performing this ritual every year m

Stfu moron!! Animal sacrifice is inhumane and barbaric!!! I don't support it!!

Tarek Fattah has made the news viral and Indians are jumping up and down in facebook and Twitter

Anyway More leather for our Industry and Beef for malnourished poor people.

And diseases. And more medicines from India and more visits to Indian hospitals. Nice. Moolahh

licensed abattoir is the way to go.. or at least... use a field(abattoir might be too far from village/town) where specialist butchers can kill your animal and give you meat... govt can set up the related infra for special occasions like this.
you dont have to be a vegan or vegetarian to find the sight disturbing.

@Rain Man
I stay banned for most of the time, the rest of the time - I stay offline. But could not miss tagging this.

 

[Bilal9]

Any surprise that Dhaka is near the bottom in liveable cities?

Yeah it is their 'own private Idaho'.....

I don't think a lot of people are worried about that ranking....

Exactly what i was suggesting at.. It would have been practical to kill animals at homes centuries ago but not at present

Read my post again.. I did not say i'm against ritualistic sacrifice, If your faith condones it i cant be judgmental,To each his own.. But those practices need to be changed according to times and evolve

Btw i'm far from a Veg, I dont believe in selective either on archaic religious beliefs (But thats just me), From Beef to Pork, There is nothing better than a Burger of Wagyu beef topped with a load of bacon
