Bovine animals in the Indian context are mainly, bullocks and buffaloes. It is understood that only uneconomic bovines which are certified as not usable for milch or agricultural purposes by the Commissioner of Animal Husbandry or his representative are allowed to be slaughtered. The exemption of service tax is given to slaughtering house of bovine animals by the Government, the exact reason is not known.

Mr Rahul, I do agree with you. This is only service tax matter but the decision of allowing the killing of innocent animals has to be decided and enacted by the Indian Parliament/the Apex Court.
