On Monday, the Apex Court refused to entertain a plea seeking direction to ban the slaughtering of animals by way of 'halal', which is largely practiced by the Muslim community.

A bench of the Top Court, headed by Justice Sanjay Kishan Kaul, while declining the petition, said, "your petition is mischievous in character."

The Supreme Court bench, while hearing a plea filed by Akhand Bharat Morcha, said that these are issues that we can't go into.

The Bench said that "Court cannot determine who can be vegetarian or non-vegetarian. Those who want to eat halal meat can eat halal meat. Those who want to eat Jhatka meat can eat Jhatka".

The Supreme Court was hearing a plea seeking directions to ban the slaughtering of an animal by way of 'Halal'.
