Earlier, the Court had passed an order&nbsp; directing police and municipal corporation officials to make sure that bulls and bullocks are not slaughtered in abattoirs. Due to this order, \u2018Bombay Suburban Beef Dealer\u2019s Welfare Association had approached the same bench of high court, claiming that the court order was misinterpreted by officials and the court should either amend or clarify it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p ><span lang=\"EN-IN\">The lawyers representing the beef traders argued that the amendment Act does not prescribe the date on which the said amendment has to come into force and that there is no material on record to indicate that there is publication in the Official Gazette and, hence, the court order should not come into effect till the President\u2019s assent is published.The lawyers for the NGO&nbsp; urged the court that being an Amendment Act, the question of publication of the assent does not arise as&nbsp; the Act came into force when the Principal Act was passed and it came into force on April 15, 1978. They also said that the lives of several cattle would be lost if this order is clarified or stayed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p >\n<p ><span lang=\"EN-IN\"><span>The Court taking into consideration the
