The Food Safety and Standards (Food Products Standards and Food Additives)
Regulations, 2011 under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006, wherein definition of
animals is given, and approved.
As per sub-regulation 2.5.1 (a)"animal" means an animal belonging to any of the species
specified below:
(i) Ovines (sheep).
(ii) Caprines (goats or goat-antelopes).
(iii) Suillines (pig family).
(iv) Bovines (ox and cow including buffalo).
(v) Domestic Rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and includes poultry and fish.
Ritual Slaughter:
Ritual slaughter is slaughter done according to the religious requirements of either
the Jewish (sachet) or Muslim (Halal) and Hindu (Jhatka) religious faith. The animal
is slaughtered, with / without being stunned, with a razor-sharp knife. When the cut
is done correctly, the animal appears not to feel it. From an animal welfare
standpoint, the major concerns during ritual slaughter are the stressful and cruel
methods of restraint (holding) that are used in some plants. Progressive slaughter
plants use devices to hold the animal in a comfortable, upright position. For both
humane and safety reasons, plants which conduct ritual slaughter should install
modern upright restraining equipment.
Direction issued for Slaughter-Meat Processing Unit for registration on Bharat
Pashudhan app NDLM under the Section 39 of PCICDA act 2009.
Streamlining of Halal Certification Process for Meat and Meat Products:
"Halal" and "haram" are terms used in Islam to classify what is permissible (halal) and
what is forbidden or prohibited (haram) according to Islamic law (Sharia).
Halal:
This term refers to things or actions that are permissible or lawful according to
Islamic teachings. It encompasses various aspects of life, including food,
behavior, and business dealings. For example, halal food adheres to specific
guidelines, such as the avoidance of pork and alcohol, and the use of humane
methods in animal slaughter.
3
Haram:
Haram, on the other hand, denotes what is forbidden or prohibited in Islam.
Actions or items labeled as haram are considered sinful or unlawful
according to Islamic teachings. This can include actions like consuming
alcohol, eating pork, engaging in dishonest business practices, or engaging
in certain behaviors or relationships that are prohibited by Islamic law.
The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) oversees food regulations in
India. The Food Safety and Standards (Licensing and Registration of Food Businesses)
Regulations, 2011, are part of the legal framework governing food businesses in the
country. However, these regulations primarily focus on food safety and hygiene
standards rather than religious or cultural practices related to animal slaughter.
Regarding stunning before animal slaughtering, while the FSSAI regulations emphasize
standards for the hygiene and safety of food processing, they might not specifically
mandate stunning before slaughter. The regulations primarily focus on ensuring that
food businesses maintain hygienic conditions, follow good manufacturing practices, and
meet safety standards during various stages of food processing, including animal
slaughter.
However, specific requirements or regulations related to stunning before animal
slaughtering might exist at the state or local level, and these could potentially conflict
with traditional halal practices. In such cases, there might be discussions or debates
between religious practices and food safety regulations.
It's essential to review both the FSSAI regulations and any additional local or state
regulations that might specifically address stunning before animal slaughter to get a
comprehensive understanding of the legal requirements and their implications on
religious or cultural practices related to animal slaughter in India.
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (Slaughter House) Rules, 2001, which were amended in
2010, include provisions that mandate stunning before animal slaughtering in India.
These rules were put in place to ensure the humane treatment of animals during
slaughter and are aimed at improving animal welfare standards in slaughterhouses.
The amended rules include guidelines for the proper handling and slaughter of animals
in registered slaughterhouses. Among the provisions is the requirement for stunning
animals before slaughter to minimize suffering and ensure a more humane process.
However, these regulations might conflict with traditional halal methods that emphasize
specific religious practices during animal slaughter, where stunning before slaughter is
not part of the process.
This requirement has led to debates and discussions within religious communities,
particularly among those following Islamic dietary laws, as stunning before slaughter
might not align with their religious practices.
The implementation and adherence to these rules can vary across regions and
slaughterhouses in India. While the rules aim to improve animal welfare, they can pose
challenges for communities that follow specific religious guidelines for animal slaughter.

Food Safety and Standards (Licensing and Registration of Food Businesses)
Regulations, 2011:
Rule 4.0 Slaughter:
Animals are slaughtered by being first stunned and then exsanguinated (bled out).
Stunning can be affected through asphyxiating the animals with carbon dioxide,
shooting them with a gun or a captive bolt pistol, or shocking them with electric current.
Rule 4.1. Stunning:
Stunning before slaughter should be mandatory. By inducing unconsciousness and
insensibility, stunning can avoid and minimize reactions of fear and anxiety as well as
pain, suffering and distress among the animals concerned. Stunning methods induce
temporary loss of consciousness and rely on prompt and accurate sticking procedures
to cause death.
It is important that the equipment utilized for stunning and slaughter is maintained in
good working condition and that all operators involved are well trained and have a
positive attitude towards the welfare of animals.
Electrical stunning consists of passing electricity through the brain to produce
instantaneous insensibility.

 Memorandum
Implementing the installation of CCTV cameras to monitor animal abuse in slaughterhouses in
India is a significant step towards ensuring animal welfare and enforcing compliance with
ethical standards. Here’s a detailed plan and considerations for this project, in good faith as
community policing:
1. Objective and Scope
Define the primary objectives:
Monitor and prevent animal abuse.
Ensure compliance with animal welfare regulations.
Improve transparency and accountability in slaughterhouse operations.
2. Legal and Regulatory Framework
Regulations and Guidelines:
Understand the current legal framework governing animal welfare in
slaughterhouses in India, such as the Food Safety and Standards (Licensing and
Registration of Food Businesses) Regulation, 2011 / Food Safety and Standards
(Prohibition and Restriction of Sales) Regulation, 2011 / Food Safety and
Standards (Food Products Standards and Food Additives) Regulation, 2011 /
Streamlining of Halal Certification Process for Meat and Meat Products /
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960 - Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
(Slaughter House) Rules, 2001 and 2010.
Compliance:
Ensure that the installation of CCTV cameras complies with local, state, and national laws. This
may include obtaining necessary permissions and adhering to data protection regulations.
Ensure the installation of animal scanner at the all-entry point of Slaughterhouses, monitoring
cruelty against animals, as per Central Motor Vehicles (Eleventh Amendments) Rules, 2015 and
rule 96 of Animal Transport Rules, 1978, amended in 2001 and 2009, restoring 5 freedoms for
animals.
3. Stakeholder Engagement
Government Authorities:
Collaborate with government bodies such as the Animal Welfare Board of India (AWBI) / State
Animal Welfare Board / District Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals and the Haryana
State Pollution Control Board with Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI).
Slaughterhouse Operators:
Engage with slaughterhouse owners and managers to explain the benefits and legal
requirements of CCTV monitoring.
Animal Welfare Organizations:
Partner with NGOs and animal rights groups to ensure comprehensive monitoring and
reporting.
4. Technical Specifications
Camera Selection:
Choose high-resolution cameras capable of capturing clear footage in various
lighting conditions. Consider weatherproof and vandal-proof models for
durability.
Placement:
Strategically place cameras to cover key areas such as entrance, rest place of
animals, holding pens, slaughtering areas, and processing zones to ensure
comprehensive monitoring.
Storage and Access:
Implement secure storage solutions for the recorded footage. Define protocols for who can
access the footage and under what conditions.
5. Implementation Plan
Pilot Phase:
Start with a pilot project in a few slaughterhouses to test the system and make
necessary adjustments.
59
Full-Scale Rollout:
Gradually expand the installation to more slaughterhouses based on the results and feedback
from the pilot phase.
6. Monitoring and Reporting
Real-time Monitoring:
Set up a control room or monitoring Center to watch live feeds. Employ trained
personnel to monitor footage and report any instances of abuse.
Regular Audits:
Conduct regular audits of the footage to ensure compliance with animal welfare
standards.
Reporting Mechanisms:
Establish a system for reporting and addressing any identified instances of animal abuse.
7. Training and Awareness
Training for Staff:
Provide training for slaughterhouse staff on humane handling practices and the
importance of CCTV monitoring.
Awareness Campaigns:
Run awareness campaigns to inform the public and stakeholders about the initiative and its
benefits for animal welfare.
8. Evaluation and Feedback
Performance Metrics:
Define key performance indicators (KPIs) to evaluate the effectiveness of the CCTV
monitoring system.
Feedback Mechanism:
Create a feedback mechanism to gather input from stakeholders and make continuous
improvements.
9. Funding and Sustainability
Funding Sources:
Identify potential funding sources such as government grants, private investors, and
animal welfare organizations.
Sustainability Plan:
Develop a plan to ensure the long-term sustainability of the CCTV monitoring system,
including maintenance and upgrades.
10. Challenges and Mitigation
Resistance from Slaughterhouses: Address concerns and resistance from slaughterhouse
operators through dialogue and incentives.
Technical Issues:
Ensure reliable technical support to address any issues with the CCTV equipment.
Privacy Concerns:
Balance monitoring with privacy concerns by ensuring footage is used solely for
animal welfare purposes.
By following this comprehensive plan, the installation of CCTV cameras in slaughterhouses
can significantly contribute to reducing animal abuse and promoting ethical practices in the
meat industry in India.
For strict compliance and report.
