Odia here, my title "Das", was adopted by my grandfather for dedicating his life to Lord Jagannath forever. Clearing his because some people think Das means Bengali. Anyways, I am in private sector. I am/was friends with 1 Bengali Girl. One day we were discussing politics and about Mamta. Turns out her family is a commu and an avid marxist follower. I was astonished literally! I pointed out how her state is doomed in the next 30 years. She is from Durgapur. Girl had no reality check at all. After some more interactions she told me her family eats beef sometimes and she was all about how delicious it was. I asked her if they have ever been to Puri mandir. And turns out she has gone multiple times. I told her to not come again because mandir rules are literally about not allowing people who eat beef be it cow or bulls. If she comes she is gonna bad karma. She can eat anything, but dont go to another state and not follow religious rules set by a temple and its local. My blood boiled. She must have got a bad taste after I called her out openly but I dont care. Asking Bengali and others if you eat beef, dont enter Puri temple, we dont even allow converted Hindus foreigners because at a certain time they would have eaten beef. It is said lord Vishnu comes to Puri at afternoon for lunch. Hence what you are eating plays a huge role in Puri temple. If you still come after all this, I am not sure what Karma has it for you.
It really pains to see kolkata lagging behind Mumbai and Delhi. BJP is doing massive infrastructure projects in mumbai. If BJP comes in WB, what 15-20 major infrastructure projects should be done by them ASAP. Kindly make a dedicated video on the 15-20 infrastructure projects that will make kolkata metropolitan area on par with Mumbai metropolitan region or national capital region. Kolkata needs to regain its glory back.

Vedas Puranas Mahabharata Ramayan ayurveda upanishad tantra each and every Hindu scriptures etc etc clearly mentioned unlimited non veg eating unlimited animal sacrifices like cow buffalo goat horse etc etc etc .
