As affluence in India rises more and more larger animals such as bovines, camels and increasigly horses are slaughtered to show the 'status ' of the person making the sacrifice. Slaughter was symbolic and never meant to be a status parade that it has become.
Even on Bakr Eid slaughter of animals other than goats or sheep is not
allowed under Indian law. No slaughter is allowed other than at a slaughter house under legal procedure and an exception is provided for ritual slaughter on Eid but can only be provided for sheep & goat. However it is increasingly common to see the 'spectacle' of animals slaughtered publicly for the amusement of those witnessing the slaughter.
This is part 1 of a 2 slaughter video and is an original video from the
investigation on illegal camel slaughter in public places by Kanishka Sharma
and Sonya Ghosh. This camel was slaughtered near Jama Masjid in New Delhi
on Bakr Eid 2011.
