Haryana: The Haryana government on Tuesday has strengthened the 2015 anti-cow slaughter law by authorizing the police to seize the vehicle involved in the transportation of animals and search the premises, Hindustan Times reported.

The present Haryana Gauvansh Sanrakshan and Gausamvardhan Act, 2015, prohibits cow slaughter, trafficking and consumption of beef in the state.

Chief Minister Manohar Khattar chaired the meeting which approved the amendment to make it more practical and stringent.
