The Maharashtra government has decided to set up permanent shelters in 34 districts for old cows that have stopped yielding milk to ensure they are not abandoned. The decision comes a year after its controversial move to ban beef across Maharashtra.
Finance Minister Sudhir Mungantiwar has allocated Rs 34 crore for the project in the state budget 2016-17. The project ? Govardhan Govansh Raksha Kendra ? will get a one-time state financial aid of Rs 1 crore in each selected district and will be implemented through a non-government organisation. The NGOs will be selected based on experience and commitment to protection of cows.
