Reacting to Ghosh’s claim, senior Trinamool Congress leader and state minister Subrata Mukherjee said, “This is the most absurd statement on which I am being asked to comment. I have never heard such a weird thing. Who are these people?”
Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) Bengal unit president Dilip Ghosh on Tuesday claimed that the milk of Indian cows contains gold and consumption of this milk can make one immune to all diseases.

Foreign cows lack such qualities, he further said.
“You must have seen that Indian cows have a hump. Foreign cows don’t have that. This hump has a special nerve. Gold is created when sunlight falls on this nerve. That is why the milk is yellowish or golden. This milk is a great antidote. One can survive by having only this milk. This is a complete meal,” Ghosh said while addressing a programme in Bengal’s Burdwan district on Monday.
“Foreign breeds are not cows. Those are only animals. They call differently. Those cows are not ‘gau mata’ (mother) but aunties. It will not be good for us to worship those aunties. It is not right to worship our Gods with milk of foreign cows,” he said.

Jadavpur University professor Tarit Roychowdhury also dismissed Ghosh’s claims. “This surpasses all science,” he said.
