Chairman Haryana Gau Seva Aayog Sh Shravan Kumar Garg said that the primary objective of the State Government and the Gau Seva Aayog is to provide financial assistance to Gaushalas for ensuring proper living arrangements, treatment, green fodder, and clean water for cattle.

During a meeting held in Jind, Sh Garg instructed officers to organize a meeting with representatives of Nandishalas and Gaushalas. He emphasized the importance of creating an action plan to ensure that stray cattle are sent to Nandishalas and Gaushalas. He stated that the goal is to provide all necessary facilities to the cattle by coordinating with other Gau Sevak Committees. Additionally, he said that the Aayog is encouraging Gaushalas to become financially self-reliant. The State Government has approved a budget of Rs 70 crore for the expansion of existing Gaushalas and the establishment of new ones.

Chairman Sh Garg mentioned that the state government is developing various schemes to ensure the welfare of cows, pledging that no cow will face any difficulties. He instructed officials of the Animal Husbandry Department to tag every cattle, and to verify and process grant proposals submitted by Gaushalas within a week to ensure timely assistance.

Highlighting the achievements of the Gau Seva Aayog, he said that solar power plants have been installed in 331 cow shelters across the state, with plans to install them in the remaining shelters soon. Additionally, electricity is provided to each cow shelter at a rate of two rupees per unit, and the registration cost for purchasing land by cow shelters has been reduced to one percent from four percent.

Chairman Sh Garg appealed to the general public to recognize their moral responsibility and serve cows with a spirit of service. He urged representatives of social and religious organizations to understand that there is no greater service than serving cows.
