BJP leader Sunil Deodhar says his party will not impose beef ban in Tripura

<p>Senior BJP leader Sunil Deodhar on Tuesday ruled out the contention that the government has any intention of implementing a ban on the consumption of beef in Tripura. “If the majority of the population of a state is against the idea of beef consumption, chances are high that we will impose a ban in that area. Keeping in mind that most of the people in the north-east consume beef on a regular basis, the government will not implement the ban here,” Deodhar was quoted as saying by ANI.</p>
