Kolkata, July 25 (TIWN) Trinamool MP Nusrat Jahan says so-called "cow vigilantes" have turned Lord Ram's name into a murder cry and has appreciated members of civil society groups speaking up for human life.

Jahan quoted a couplet from Iqbal's poem Sare Jahan Se Achha to stress that India's unity in diversity should not be destroyed. The TMC MP from West Bengal's Basirhat shared a post on social media expressing her support for the letter written by 49 intellectuals, including noted filmmakers Mani Ratnam and Shyam Benegal.

"There are numerous incidents of citizens being attacked by so-called "cow vigilantes" over rumours of eating beef, or cow-smuggling, etc and government's selective silence and inaction hits us hard," Nusrat Jahan said in the post.
