Qureshi, who has taken the Narendra Modi government to the Supreme Court after he was asked to resign, also said that if any one from his community commits cow slaughter he would be ostracised.
"We, the Qureshi community, declare that cow is like a mother and sentiments of crores of people were attached to the issue," he said at a public event here.
"Whoever slaughters a cow violates the law," the Governor said, adding that such a practice should be completely brought to an end.
The Supreme Court has taken up a first-of-its kind petition by Qureshi challenging the NDA government's push to make him quit the post.
It has sought the government's views on Qureshi's plea on whether the withdrawl of the President's pleasure can be conveyed through a phone call from the Union Home Secretary.
