Should the government ban cultural ceremonies that involve the killing of animals for entertainment?

No. Government should in general keep away from regulating religious-cultural events.

Government shouldn't meddle in how hindus offer pashubali and again it is not for entertainment. It has a very higher purpose.

Outright ban may invite backlash from certain communities.Instead, the government should try to bring awareness about the animal cruelty and also inculcate the feeling of kindness to animals in the public.

The ethics are very confusing for this one so i would say it depends on a case by case basis.
