New Delhi: Fans are overjoyed with the India cricket team smashing New Zealand in the recent 3-match series of the New Zealand Tour of India. On the other hand, India is preparing for its upcoming two-match Test series against New Zealand. Amid all these, what attracted the attention of the netizens is the newly revealed “catering requirements and menu” for the India team.
The BCCI has restricted the team to follow a strict menu which mentions that there should be “no beef and pork whatsoever in any form and variety.” On the other hand, the other instruction mentions that “all meat items must be halal.”
BCCI stated that this diet plan is issued to keep them fit and healthy for the upcoming International Cricket Council (ICC) events and key series.
Netizens outrages as soon as the diet regime surfaced on the internet. The netizens protested against BCCI to promote ‘Halal’ meat.
Here are some tweets by netizens against BCCI’s decision of strict diet plan:
If #India is a secular country then why #Halal meat in diet of Indian cricket players, whereas most of the players in team are Non-Muslims ‼️@BCCI#BCCI_Promotes_Halal pic.twitter.com/CDbFbubDat

As per reports, cricketers of ‘SECULAR’ India’s national team will be able to eat only ‘Halal certified’ meat as per new diet plan !Question to @bcci is when most of the players in Indian team are non-Muslims, then why HALAL is being imposed on them ? pic.twitter.com/54FkUeCs9s

As per reports Indian cricket team is told to follow certain diet plan to stay fit and healthy. This is excellent Idea but emphesis on consuming only Halal certified meat has raised questions in millions of minds.@BCCI any clarification ?? pic.twitter.com/YfNombJPis— Aparna Naik (@AparnaNaik10) November 23, 2021
How can @BCCI impose halal food on Indian cricket team? Is it @BCCI a devoted Islamic Organization… ?
Amazing….india … what a crazy secularism….!!
No wonder why we Indians kept under slavery around 1000 yrs by a few desert dacoits and white hunters … ??— Skywalker (@iskywalker5) November 21, 2021
Utter madness. Indian cricket team can’t eat ANY meat unless it’s halal, even if the player isn’t musIim
Someone remind me how exactly India and it’s government are Hindu facists? https://t.co/xh9A4fFg6a
