Speaking to NDTV, Narayan said, “Earlier, life was at risk for vigilantes, not those who were in the (cattle) trade. Vigilantes or anyone who is working for a cause and the law of the land should definitely have a scope to work in this provision”

He further said, ” It is only the cow vigilantes who have lost their lives and that persons in the cattle trade were completely armed. They [cattle traders] were taking lives and killing people. It is not the vigilantes”
