Dung and urine from cows are more potent than medicines and can cure deadly diseases like cancer, asserted Shankarbhai Vegad, a BJP MP from Gujarat in the Rajya Sabha on Thursday.

Participating in a discussion on the Union budget, the Appropriation (Vote on Account) Bill, 2015 and the Appropriation Bill, 2015, Mr. Vegad said cows were being slaughtered in the country on the pretext of making up for food grain deficit.

Pushing for a ban on cow slaughter he said: “Cow dung and urine can cure cancer. Today, if someone has cancer, there is no cure for it; cancer is equivalent to cancel.”

He went on to say that he can vouch for the fact that urine and dung from cows can cure cancer, but there are no takers for his views. “I am witness to it, cow dung and urine are a 100 per cent cure for cancer,” he said, adding “if cow slaughter is not stopped, there will be no wealth of animals in the country.”
