cow protection movement
The cow protection movement was the movement that demanded end of cow slaughter in British India.〔''Religious Nationalism, Hindus and Muslims in India'', Peter van der Veer, pp. 83 and 86, ISBN 0-520-08256-7.〕 The movement gained momentum with the support from Arya Samaj and its founding father Swami Dayananda Saraswati. Swami Dayananda and his followers travelled across India which led to the establishment of cow protection societies in various regions of India starting at 1882. In 1893, during the peak of this movement and immediately after an order from a British magistrate who asked Muslims who wanted to sacrifice to register, violence broke out in Mau in Azamgarh district which in the following months culminated in riots across Northern India spreading its tentacles all the way to Bombay and Rangoon.
The movement antagonised many Muslims, who saw it as a Hindu tool of oppression.

The cow is a sacred animal in the Hindu religion. Cows are considered companions of Hindu God Krishna. Dairy products are extensively used in Hindu culture and are one of the most essential nutritional components of Hindu meals. ''Panchagavya'', a mixture of five products of cow milk, curd, ghee, urine and dung, is consumed in Brahmanical rituals. The mixture is also smeared on ulcers as a healing product.Cow dung diluted with water is used for plastering huts and court yards in India and cow dung water is used for purifying.Cow urine is believed to have medicinal properties and consumption of cow urine was done by many popular personalities like former Prime Minister Morarji Desai(He is believed to have consumed own urine).〔''Religious Nationalism, Hindus and Muslims in India'', Peter van der Veer, pp. 87-88, ISBN 0-520-08256-7.〕
Veneration of the cow increased during medieval times when the rate of cow slaughter increased phenomenally. It is also believed that Muslim sacrifice of cows during Bakr-Id also led to an increase in cow veneration among Hindus.〔''From Plassey to Partition, a History of modern India'', Śekhara Bandyopādhyāẏa, p. 240, ISBN 81-250-2596-0.〕
