In the name of celebrating Dalit food culture, some student associations of Osmania University have organized a 'beef festival'. More than a celebrating event, it has turned violent which lead to pelting of stones and torching vehicles.

With support from SFI and PDSU, Telangana Students Union announced this 'Beef Festival' last month, which is being opposed by ABVP students. When the festival has begun with the serving of 'beef' biryani, ABVP protesters have attacked them with stones and it lead to torching of two vehicles and injuring many. At the time when curfew is going on in Old city due to the communal clashes that erupted when miscreants hurled beef meat at Hanuman temples, this 'Beef Festival' has shocked many. Though police and paramilitary forces controlled the situation on time, 'beef festival' seemed more as madness than mockery.

When the whole world is heading into new dimension, we are again dividing ourselves in the name of 'Dalit' food, feels a social activist. 'Beef has nothing to do with Dalits or other downtrodden communities, these days many meat lovers are eating it', he adds. In the name of celebrating culture, we are creating more rifts and unnecessary divides in society!
