West Bengal BJP president Dilip Ghosh has advocated the use of “cow-urine” to boost immunity in the fight against COVID-19. This is not the first time that the Bengal BJP president has made a controversial statement on cows. Earlier this year in May, Mr. Ghosh said there was no harm in drinking cow urine and said he consumed cow urine. The West Bengal government has registered complaints against members of right wing groups who were distributing “cow urine”. Action was also taken against a civic police volunteer who was seen consuming cow urine in public.
