Their business... How many crores were spent on Hajj by Hajis last year? Can anyone tell me the "economic benefit" from that? Atleast this money is circulating within the system and is actually nice from a economy point of view..

Is the place flooded with ghee ? I feel bad for the cows who got their tits squeezed for this riduculous use of their milk

According to this link, there is enough proof that cows enjoy being milked. Although this link suggests that it's human intervention that has brought cows to such a sort of dependency. :duster murugan:

To be fair, i think this ritual is offending some quarters more because they view it as an expensive waste of food/edibles in a county where so many people go hungry and less about this being another mindless hindu ritual.

Its not enjoyment but more of relief as they are almost "programmed" to produce crazy quantity of milk everyday. Once they are all filled up, the would want someone to empty the load. :winky:
