Phooka

What does ‘phooka’ with reference to buffalo and cow’s milk mean?

Read that Mahatma Gandhi avoid consuming buaffalo and cow’s milk, because they were subject to phooka? It mentions that Gandhi ji consumed goat’s milk (which don’t require phooka? )

Its the process of blowing air into the animal’s privates to induce milk production. This process is considered illegal in India.

Does it not apply to goats?

Re: Phooka

Probably not, because goat milk is not as widely drunk as cow milk
