    Serial deaths of cows in Karnataka village, locals point fingers at BJP Yatra

    [ad_1]

    Raichur: Seven cows have been reported to have died and eight others critically ill after allegedly eating waste food in the Gunjalli village in Raichur district.

    The locals on Thursday alleged that the cows ate waste food piled up in the village after the Vijay Sankalp Yatra of the BJP.

    The locals said that so far seven cows have died and eight cows are critically ill after consuming the leftover food and waste materials. Even buffaloes and other animals have also taken ill. The abdomen of several cows are bloated and farmers who reared them have expressed shock and anger over the development.

    The Vijay Sankalp Yatra was organised at Gunjalli on March 10. Thousands of people participated in the rally and BJP had organised lunch for the party workers and supporters. After the lunch, the leftover food and waste materials were thrown at an open field and the cattle ate them and developed sickness.

    Last month, two cows died after eating rice packed in plastic covers in Vaikuntha Pura village of Sringeri taluk following the Pancha Ratna Yatra of JD(S).

    The people are slamming the BJP, which talks highly of taking care of cows, for not disposing of the food appropriately that has resulted in the cow deaths.

  • Benaras gets a ‘roti ATM’ to feed stray dogs and cows

    Benaras gets a ‘roti ATM’ to feed stray dogs and cows

    Varanasi: Benaras has got a ‘roti ATM’, a first-of-its-kind initiative to feed speechless stray dogs and cows.

    Grootguardian, the organization that Gaurav Rai set up along with his four friends for a noble purpose, now houses 40 youths.

    Grootguardian President Gaurav Rai said that he got the inspiration for the work from his friend Siddharth Singh who passed away in a road accident.

    Rai said that Singh was an animal lover and wherever he used to see hungry animals, he used to feed them biscuits and jaggery.

    “We have started this ATM after his sudden demise. We feed the food collected in the ATM to stray dogs and cows,” Rai said.

    The first ATM is installed in a society in Pandeypur in Banke Bihari, in which around 100-150 chappatis are being collected. The next ATM will be installed in Shivpur where 200 families reside.

    “We are being supported by around 40 people including Prajwal, Harsh, Aman, Mrintujay, Vikas, Kavish, Sadas, Avinash, Shivani, Tulika , Akshara, Kritika, Himalaya, and Nihal,” he said.

    Prajwal said that organization was founded in 2019 and during the Covid pandemic, they used to feed stray animals and distribute rations to the poor people.

    “His team is continuously working for animal welfare, women and child education, and environmental conservation,” Prajwal said.

  • Uma Bharti tying cows in front of liquor shop: Good thing, says MP home minister

    Uma Bharti tying cows in front of liquor shop: Good thing, says MP home minister

    [ad_1]

    Indore: Senior Bharatiya Janata Party leader Uma Bharti’s move to tie cows in front of a liquor shop as part of her campaign against alcohol in Madhya Pradesh was a “good thing”, state Home minister Narottam Mishra said on Friday.

    Bharti on Thursday tied stray cows in front of a liquor shop in Orchha town, over 450 kilometres from here, and fed them hay as she called upon people to drink cow milk and shun alcohol.

    The former chief minister is spearheading a campaign against liquor consumption in the BJP-ruled state and maintained the government should not cash in on the habit of drinking.

    “It is a good thing,” Mishra said when queried about Bharti’s act in Orchha.

    She had thrown cow dung on the same liquor shop in June last year and had thrown a stone at a liquor vend in Bhopal in March last year.

    While Bharti had started off by seeking total prohibition in the state, she is now demanding regularisation of alcohol sale in the state, where Assembly polls are due by the end of the year.

    On Congress MLA Sanjay Yadav backing Bharti and announcing he would join hands with her to end the rampant sale of illegal liquor in villages under “government protection”, Mishra said the opposition party was latching on other’s efforts as it is devoid of issues to combat the BJP.

    Speaking at a Republic Day function, MP Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan had said his state would come up with a new excise police that would discourage drinking.

    Meanwhile, Mishra refuted reports of an activist of the banned Popular Front of India being held in Sheopur.

    Queried on the renaming of Islam Nagar in Bhopal as Jagdishpur, Mishra said the move was a reflection of the people’s demand.
