Vice President of India M Venkaiah Naidu spoke about beef ban stating that one can eat beef but there is no need for celebration.

You want to eat beef, then eat. Why celebrate? Similarly, a 'Kiss Festival', if you wish to kiss why do you need a festival or anyone's permission for it," Naidu made these remarks while addressing a gathering at Platinum Jubilee celebrations of RA Poddar College of Commerce.

Naidu added that he himself is a non-vegetarian. What one should eat and should not, is an individual’s choice. But a lot of people use this for their political agendas and create unrest.

While addressing the crowd, he also hit out at those who consider Parliament attack convict Muhammad Afzal Guru as their hero.

Then you have Afzal Guru. People are chanting his name. What is happening? He tried to explode our Parliament," the Vice President said.

Naidu spoke about the beef festival referring to the reports of some students of IIT-Madras who held a beef festival in July 2017, inside the campus to protest against the cattle slaughter ban.
