Viral Fact Check: Al Kabeer Exports is Not a 'Hindu' Slaughter House

I came across a social media post recently which accused Hindus of being hypocritical on the issue of “cow slaughter”. As per the social media post, which has been spread as a viral post, most of the largest slaughter houses in India are run by Hindus or Sikhs and not by Muslims. As we know, as per Hinduism, cows are worshiped and are to be always protected. All the native religions of India have respected cows in similar manner. On the other hand, beef eating is prevalent among Muslims and hence the community is often accused of being disrespectful towards Hindus’ sentiments. Perhaps this social media post tried to “correct” the perception.

The social media post specifically mentioned about one “Al Kabeer Exports Pvt Ltd.” whose expert oriented slaughterhouse is based at Hyderabad. Here is the viral (fake) post which mentions that “all the directors of the company are Hindus”: 

Searching with Google, I came across this petition on Change.org asking it to be banned. The petition also mentions that most employees of this slaughter house are Hindus and the director of this company is a Hindu.

I searched with Google to find more about this company. I came across its official website which is: http://www.alkabeerexports.com/about/

The above company website clearly mentions that the company “is a Muslim (owned) company”. It also mentions that the company’s slaughterhouse in India “does not slaughter cows, bulls or bullocks”. It only slaughters buffaloes. Buffalo’s meat is also called “beef” and hence this confusion has been created.

The website also mentions that there are false pictures of this slaughterhouse shared on social media in order to defame the company. It also hosts a scanned image of Government of India certificate showing the name and picture of its Director who is a Muslim: 

Therefore, it is clear that the viral posts on social media including the pictures shared of the slaughterhouse and the religion of the director of the company, all are false information.

I am sharing this on my blog so that you are aware of this and in case you come across any viral social media post sharing false information about this company, you can share the correct facts and information about this.

Saw Monorail in Mumbai

We saw Monorail in Mumbai today and felt good about it. In Pune we are waiting for Metro Project to come up, which has been approved. Before that Metro rail in Delhi and Sea Link in Mumbai have been very good big projects. Even in our locality in Pune, two new beautiful Flyovers have been inaugurated now for which construction had started about 1.5 year back. Certainly some good work is being done by govt which is appreciable...

Maharashtra Desha: Uddhav Thackeray Photography

On Diwali eve, we found some new roadside vendors joining the festivities in Pune. We noticed an unusual seller: a woman was selling "books" on a table she had put on the roadside. We found that all the books and magazines on sale were in Marathi language. Then I noticed a book by Uddhav Thackeray. The book "Maharashtra Desha" is a collection of Uddhav's aerial photography across the state. When we asked the lady if the book was also available in Hindi or English, she replied, "the person whose book it is, is a Marathi and hence the book is also in Marathi." I liked her pride and attitude. We bought one book and came back home. When we checked the book out, we were awestruck with the brilliant and wonderful photographs published in the book. We could not resist but went back to the lady and bought 2 more books which we have gifted to our parents. Pieces of beautiful Maharashtra and some reason for the lady's pride have traveled to far places now...

The book महाराष्ट्र देशा is divided into sections: (1) Forts, (2) Temples and places of worship, (3) Rivers and Roads/Highways, (4) Landmarks in Mumbai, (5) General photography. 

A few pictures of forts are can be seen here: 

You can also see a Rediff Slideshow on the same book and Uddhav Thackeray's photography: [Link]

Paperback edition of the book costs only Rs 100 and can be found here: http://www.sahyadribooks.org/books/MHDesha.aspx?bid=508

When I tried to find some photographs on the internet, I could find mostly pictures of forts. But the photographs of other sections of the book including the last general photography titled "Adbhut Desha अद्भुत देशा" is so wonderful that unless you see those, you won't be able to guess the beauty. Our parents viewed the pictures and were mesmerized. The photographs not only show the international level photography talent in Uddhav Thackeray but also his thinking and humility. There is a picture of a man washing his buffaloes in a pond, a family traveling in a boat in a river, a farmer with green turban sitting in his fields with specks of greenery, a variety of crops making a mesmerizing visual delight, a group of womenfolks waiving to the photographers while they were sowing rice in the fields, or four boys resting after having hearty swimming... The width and depth of the images are unseen before... Kudos to Uddhav for this book and for his photography... 

With the exceptional quality of photography and the unparalleled coverage of Maharashtra, the book is actually priceless. If you love Maharashtra or want to know more, it is a must buy.

Visit to Lonavala Bhushi Dam

Bhushi dam is located about 6 km from Lonavala railway station. There are auto-rickshaws playing between the city and the dam (reasonable fare is around Rs 70, though we had to give Rs 100 on either side to be able to reach). On the way to reach there, you may get a good view of the city from its narrow lanes as well as some most beautiful scenery.

When you reach the site, first you have to keep your shoes somewhere because you can’t reach the dam without entering into water. There are small shops and stalls which can keep your belongings till you return, for a fee. There are also shops which provide slippers for your visit, charging Rs 20 for it. In order to reach the high point of the dam, you will be going through the steps of a waterfall. It is an amazing and refreshing experience!

You can see below some of the images we took during the visit. Second last image shows small fish moving around in the water which got collected in small portions of the rock. The last image is of Shivaji Maharaj, as near Lonavala Railway Station.

Management mythos by Dr. Devdutt Pattanaik

I am a big fan of Dr. Devdutt Pattanaik and I wait for his column “Management Mythos” in the Economic Times every Friday. Dr. Pattanaik, a medical doctor by education (MBBS from Grant Medical College, Mumbai) turned to become a renowned mythologist. He works as a leadership consultant and holds the innovative position of Chief Belief Officer at the Future Group. You can check his website at: http://devdutt.com/

I am reproducing his today’s article from ET:

Management mythos: Read situations in all the perspectives

30 Sep, 2011, 05.49AM IST, ET Bureau

The sage Narada wanted to marry a young princess. But she said she wanted to marry only Hari. Hari is the name of Vishnu , who is God and the guardian of earth. Narada went to Vishnu and began singing his praises. So Vishnu offered him a boon.

"Give me the face of Hari," said Narada. Vishnu granted that wish. Narada went to the princess but instead of garlanding him, she turned around in disgust. There behind her stood Vishnu. The overjoyed princess garlanded Vishnu. Narada wondered what was wrong. Then he saw his face reflected on a mirror.

It was that of a monkey! He accused Vishnu of cheating him. Vishnu smiled and replied, "I gave you the face of Hari, which literally means monkey, though it happens to be my name."

Narad can be read the situation in two ways: a strategic narrative or a sincere narrative. In a strategic narrative, Narad can see Vishnu behaving like a lawyer, playing with words to make him feel like a fool. In a sincere narrative, Narada can see Vishnu behave like God, using a play of words to enlighten him not to trick a young girl simply because he can.

In a strategic narrative, Vishnu is the wily trickster who wants the princess for himself. In a sincere narrative, Vishnu stops Narada from being a trickster and grants the princess her wish. In a strategic narrative, Narada feels like a fool. In a sincere narrative, Narada is enlightened.

Every situation can be read strategically or sincerely. When we read a situation strategically, we feel manipulated; we feel we have been reduced to a performing monkey. When we read a situation sincerely , we learn from it; we feel someone cares for us enough to demonstrate to us our shortcomings rather than simply pointing it out.

After completing his course in Australia, Jason returned to India with plans to start a fast food joint. His father, Paul, was a renowned restaurateur, with many small boutique hotels in East and South India , saw the business plan and knew that it would not work. But he gave his son the seeding capital he needed.

The hotel started with much fanfare but was in the red in less than six months. That is why Paul sent his team to help out the son. They made two key changes, in the menu and in the advertising. The same place, which was empty for six months, was now full of customers.

Now Jason has two options, just like Narada. Read his father's actions strategically or sincerely. He can see Paul as a manipulator, a dominant father, who wanted to put him in his place. Or he can see Paul as a teacher, a caring father, who wanted to show him what actually works in the restaurant business. Jason can feel like Hari, the monkey, or thank Hari, the teacher. The choice is very much his.

The author is the Chief Belief Officer of the Future Group. He can be reached at devdutt@devdutt .com

Baby Talk

Lessons from the Kiddo – Twenty minutes in the Bus

It was a usual Mumbai morning when I boarded a local bus. After some time I started hearing some chuckles from nearby. It was a baby, who was chattering around. I saw that a Muslim family had boarded the bus and that baby was with them; in his father’s hands. They had not got a seat yet and hence were standing. Then I heard some more noises, and found it was his little sister standing on her own. They were five of them – father, mother, baby boy, his little sister, and a lady in a burqa. The baby boy would be around one and a half years old and the girl would be of around three and a half or four. I looked up from my seat to get to see him clearly. He was a very cute little baby and he kept babbling; perhaps he was talking to his father. I couldn’t stop but smile wide, looking at him. Now the baby noticed me smiling at him! Our eyes met for some moments and all of a sudden, he jumped to get into my lap, with his both arms stretched towards me! His father stopped him from falling into my lap, as I sighed and looked away… After next stop they got a vacant seat just in front of mine and the two ladies with the two babies occupied it. Now, the real fun began…

After hyperactively doing a lot of things and making lots of noises, accidentally the baby boy snatched his sister’s hair. His sister was a baby too and she couldn’t tolerate this insult; so she pulled his hair in return! It was an uncomfortable sight, to see a two year old baby’s small hair being pulled up… The boy was shocked and couldn’t react for some moments, but when he realised what was done to him by his sister, he made a crying face! A moment later, his hands reached out to his sister’s hair and he pulled her hair with all his energy! The girl tried to protect herself, all the while she reached for his head again! This continued for some uncomfortable five minutes while their amused parents watched them fighting… Then the kids were separated and made to stop their bitter fight.

Suddenly, the baby boy found a stainless steel strip of the nearby window interesting enough. It was a shining piece, almost like a mirror. As soon as the kid found it attractive, he reached out at it with his open mouth and started licking it! I sighed and saw him with awe…

Twenty minutes in the bus with the kids, I saw so many emotions in the play… Baby tried to talk to his father with his babbles… As soon as the baby saw a friendly person in me, he tried to leap into my lap… When he hit his sister, she retaliated with equal force and he too went into a ‘hairy’ war with her… As soon as he found a piece of steel amusing enough, he ran to feel it with his mouth… So humane and so natural…

I realised that feelings of we loving others (him talking to father), our need to be loved (he running into my lap), to retaliate and hit back (fights between him and his sister), to enjoy nice things we find in life (he licking the shining steel), are just some very humane and natural ways we act like…

There is no mistake in we over-stretching ourselves a bit to love others; there is no wrong in seeking love from others; no harm in hitting back in defence; and no sin in enjoying good things we have in life…

Life should be lived naturally, humanly, and baby-like…

(Rahul)

Wishing you a very Happy and Prosperous Diwali! May this festival of lights bring loads of happiness and positive things to you…

Live Show by Spy Camera!

There have been many Pakistan sponsored terrorist attacks over Mumbai, but the November 2008 attack was perhaps the most shameful. In an unforgettable episode, we watched with horror how our cops tried to pacify armed terrorists with bare hands, wooden sticks and even by throwing chairs at them. There were instances where terrorist’s bullets had pierced the bullet-proof-jackets of our anti-terror-squad members. (Perhaps these were the reasons why the state govt had leadership decided to hide the Pradhan Committee report). After the dust settled, the state government and Mumbai Police took some ‘strong’ measures to prevent such attacks from happening again. It was politically obvious that the measures had to be 'visible'; otherwise how would they regain voters’ support? So a lot of 'visible' measures were taken and our CM, HM, PM and the real M made a lot of 'audible' noises about how they had used this unprecedented setback for setting their houses in order. It seemed they were really working, when I saw some closed circuit cameras installed in the BEST buses (Mumbai’s city bus service).

.
These were supposed to be ‘spy cams’. Cameras had come in ‘fashion’ in terror-stricken Mumbai after we had watched almost all of the terror attacks on the live cameras and video footages of CCTVs. So the bus wallas also decided to install the cameras. But I wonder if the cameras were installed for gathering intelligence and prevention of crime, or to do effective 'post-mortems' and making better documentaries? My cynicism is because of what I saw some days afterwards…
.

Many of BEST buses had installed flat screen TV sets which used to show some pre-recorded programs and advertisements. This was for entertainment as well as for extra revenues from advertisements. Now one fine morning, I found that the TV screen in my bus was telecasting live coverage of what the spy camera was recording! It showed us the people who were getting into the bus and were settling in. Within next 10 minutes, I could naively understand the 'range' of the intelligent camera and could know exactly which portion of the bus it didn’t cover! I wondered why they were 'giving away' their secrets. Are not spy cameras to remain a secret? I thought it was happening by mistake! But the next day again the same thing was happening! TV screens telecasted what the spy camera was recording! I witnessed this about a month ago. This Sunday again, I saw the same thing! I wonder what the ‘plan’ is!
.

Is it not that terrorists and criminals 'plan' their adventures? Of course they do; and if any one of them decided to board a public bus for some bomb blast, they would now be able to know the manner in which to board the bus so as to avoid the spy camera! With TV set telecasting the recordings live, the spy cameras have become useless! After realising this, I became too ashamed at Mumbai Police, or at whoever was responsible for the decision to 'train' the terrorists on 'how to avoid' spy cameras…
.

Or is it some other design? Is it that the Police wanted us to 'know' that they had installed 'spy cameras' and if they didn't telecast what the camera was recording in front of us, perhaps we would never know that they had installed a camera? This is more logical. Of course this realisation is worse. What do we expect next? Another terror attack and another ‘post-mortem’? I realise now…
.

A vote is more precious than the voter’s life.

Life can Smile - Even in Scarcity

It was yet another rainy evening in Mumbai. As my bus stopped (or may be moved too slow) as the rush hour traffic snarled through a particular locality, I saw some hutments made on one side of the road. They were perhaps nomads who had settled there for some months. I glanced through their men, women and children who were carrying on various activities of their household. Suddenly something caught my attention. Or someone…

He was an old man, perhaps in his later 60s but looked like in his 80s; near skeleton, but had long hair with beard flowing over his clothes which were grey – all proving nothing but an abject poverty. Why did he catch my attention? Oh, there he was… He was raising both his hands up to his shoulders and smiling! Not only smiling, but he was like blessing someone! I looked in his line of sight – and I found two younger strong and obese men walking on the road. They were returning him smiles in a gesture. So the old man, who was a portrait of paucity, still had the heart to bless someone richer than himself raising both his hands like Lord Brahma and with such a broad smile! In second thoughts, I found it must be something with the way India is – here people are respected just because of their age!

Just ten meters away from him, I caught another breath stopping sight. There was a kid of about five, lying on his aaram kursi. It was an old style chair, with a reclining seat made up of cloth, which were more popular in the past as resting chairs. This chair was a small one, specifically made for children. As the boy rested on it, he was bending towards one side and watching something on the ground, may be some insects or birds. He seemed to be lost in his world, and I imagined him singing a song. Such a desolate condition of his wandering family, and yet they had cared to keep this kid entertained. On his aaram kursi the boy must be feeling like a prince! Or a baby Krishna for sure…

I also remember another scene from a traffic signal. Some street-children were playing in between doing their beggars job. At one place I saw three kids of around 5-10 years, perhaps they were siblings. One boy and one girl were decorating another girl. They had made her wear bangles in her arms, had kept a piece of clothes over her head like an anchal, had pleated her hair to look nice and balanced, and then there was something which touched my heart… The boy had found a piece of ornament (of course artificial) which is used by Indian women to put over their mang (parting of the hair). It seemed that they were playing dulhan-dulhan and the siblings were trying to decorate their youngest sister as a bride! I wondered if these kids have really dreamt of nice wedding for their sister as it happens in the homes on both sides of the roads! Still, their happiness to see their little sister look like a bride, though in whatever condition clothes and ornaments happened to be, was wonderful beyond comparisons…

When I think about it, I smile at myself. For some time I had wondered if the scenes that I witnessed told me how even the poorest of the poor in India carry part of the same culture and share similar values with the rest. I don’t think it was only this much. I think the scenes proved in front of my eyes – that Life can Smile – even in Scarcity.

#Thoughts: Learning work ethics from a Kachra wallah

We don’t stop learning. We can learn anytime, anywhere, from anyone. That is what is expected from us in our lives. 

We all have heard a lot about the Dabba wallas of Mumbai. The Dabba wallahs deliver Tiffin boxes at the right places with six sigma accuracy. Some days back I came across one person, who made me learn a thing or two on work ethics. 

By Kachra wallah I mean the guy who every morning collects garbage/wastes from door to door in our residential apartments and discharge it to the municipal garbage collection vehicle.

My first encounter with him was interesting. I was taking my morning bath and here someone starts ringing call bell. I needed some time to come out, but hey! He now starts knocking at the door; thinking may be the call bell is not working. After a lot of knocks and some speedy efforts from me, I open the door and find the hero of this story standing there. 

He had put up T-shirt and knickerbockers (trousers ending above knees). Is he a cool dude? Let us go in detail…. 

He was a thin man in his forties, but looking much older. His rickety legs were visible from the knickerbockers. But he had an expressive face. I become annoyed to find that the guy was a kachra wallah.  Before I could speak, he starts off in a loud voice, “Kachra do naa. Kitni baar darwaajaa khatkhataya” (“Give me the garbage. How many times I have knocked at your door!”). 

What? I lose my cool and tell him that if I don’t turn up, he can’t force me to give it to him. I smiled at my own statement. But he is not convinced and asks me to hurry up. 

From that day onwards, he comes to my door and knocks until I appear; either I give him his beloved kachra or I tell him that I didn’t generate any! Now onwards, I will call him GMan – Garbage Man (this is different from Gmale/Gmail :). 

After some days, he observes that he is not able to collect garbage from my flat, as by the time he comes to the ground floor, collecting garbage from all the upper floors, I am out of the house (for office). To my amazement, now he started collecting garbage from lower to upper floors! He continued in this absurd manner (he has to carry the load upwards) for one month. Then one day, someone from the society scolded him for doing that the unconventional way. He asked our guy to collect downwards only. Our GMan found merit in that and now I see him only 4 times a week. 

One day, I saw him carrying his garbage basket out from our housing society. Then suddenly he stopped. There were some plastic wrappers lying at some distance. He collects them and put them into his basket. Then he carries on. This I not expected, because cleaning the lawn is the responsibility of someone else! This makes me think a little more about him…..

When I think, I can easily count several traits that make his case a perfect example of good work ethics:   

• He is punctual at his work, and never absent.
• He is passionate for his job. He is ready to argue and will get the job done at any cost. GMan stays at my door, unless I appear.
• To satisfy his customers, he is flexible, even if that cause him some pain. GMan carries the garbage up the ladder, so that he doesn’t miss one flat on the ground.
• He listens to others and is ready to change if he finds merit in that. GMan changed his path again upwards, because that was the efficient method.
• He goes beyond his defined job responsibility. GMan is ready to pick up the garbage from the ground, which is actually assigned to some other person.
• He doesn’t want to be praised. He is content with the timely completion of his work. No one praises GMan for his good work.
• Am I going too far, in extracting something called “good work ethics” out of our GMan? What is a work ethic? “The work ethic is a cultural norm that advocates being personally accountable and responsible for the work that one does and is based on a belief that work has intrinsic value.” Read this definition, and I am proud to come across this GMan – a perfect example or good work ethic. 

I still don’t know his real name. But now I do some Googling. Do you know what they call our Kachra Wallahs in the US? In the US, he is also called Waste collector, Garbage man, Garbage collector, Trash collector, or Sanitation engineer. The last name will provide our GMan some inspiration.

A good attempt.

Is it his love of the job / responsibility / ethics / moral values or the uncertainty surrounding his job ? There is always an element of need which inspires individual behaviour. Good work ethics originate from inner strength and understanding.

Dabbawallas is a classic example of the “System design” – people working there are bound by the system and carry out a samll activity contributing only to that extent, they may not be responsible for the entire system efficiency.

Hi Rahul,

“Work Ethics” seems a heavy term.But it is just about the way one takes one”s duty.The “one” can be anyone from Gman to CEO of some mamoth organization.

There is always a scope to learn from each and every individual.I would really appreciate that you zeroed in on Gmans who are generally ignored and their work are not perceived respectfully.

In the last paragraph, you have used “Sanitation engineer” for Gman.The new name will give them a bit of pride.But if we could do something concrete and material to salute their Work Ethics,to well – feed and educate their children then they will always beem with pride and love for their work, with their heads high.Rickety legs can not bear the weight of this pride for long.Why not to cure this malnutrition.

I would like if you come up with some encouragement plan for them in your next article.

Dear Rahul,

Before commenting on the piece you wrote, I really appreciate you, for sharing your thoughts from day-to day experiences.
You are on right path, trying to figure out learning from whatever experiences you are facing. No doubt your thought process is open with no discrimination at all on the basis,.. whom you take it from. Logic coupled with wisdom is what you are using at its best.

Now coming to feedback zone to your mail. My leanings as under.

1. I think everyone is unique, not for the matter what job(your Gman) or one”s doing.
2. You can learn from anything/anyone, if it benefits you or generates novel ideas in self/ impacts society positively.
3. Discrimination on one”s status in society, blocks you out. This really don”t help learning.
4. Work ethics(Good….also Bad) can be a chain reaction, can make or brake yourself/organisation/community/locality.

In the process of writing feedback, I feel mentally I am conditioning my brains towards useful thoughts.

Lot of people do great work for society but we dont recognize the contribution they make, this is a classic example. Look at it this was what if Garbage collector, plumber…. refuse to come to work, they is going to be lot of dirt and water coming out ;)

So if v cant give them rise evry year we can atleast make sure their contribution doesnt go unnoticed…
