In what could spark a fresh controversy, BJP MLA Vikram Saini has said he would break the limbs of those disrespecting and killing cows.
"I had promised that I would break the hand and legs of the people who disrespect and kill cows,” Saini said at a gathering.
The statement was made by the MLA from Khatauli constituency while speaking at an event on Saturday.
This is not the first time that Saini sparked controversy with his acerbic tongue. He has been accused of making inflammatory speech during the Muzaffarnagar riot and was also sent behind the bars for it.
The remark came at a time when Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has directed to impose a complete ban on cow smuggling.
