Just to set the record straight, beef is not banned in many states in India, especially the northeast.

"24 out of 29 states in India currently have various regulations prohibiting either the slaughter or sale of cows."

That sounds like most states ban it. Also the grandparent comment just said "other states" without stating the number.
