Come, let's join together to make this event a huge success and thus serve Goumatha…Why Cows are not having an alternate?Cows in India are not just animals, but are revered as

one of the icons of the country's very culture and civilization, and are indeed worshipped as "cow-mother. " In the course of their local evolution through the ages, Indian native cows have developed their own characteristics, which are acclaimed the world over for their wonderful properties. Absorbing energy from the sunrays through a "solar pulse" on their back, the native cows yield milk of the highest quality, with superlative qualities to enhance man's physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well-being. Apart from milk, Indian native cows are also valued highly for their urine and dung, which are finding increasing applications in almost every aspect of human life today, and novel products like "cow shampoo", "cow soap,cow incense sticks," and "cow insect-/pest-repellants" are now becoming increasingly popular in the country,among health-and-environm ent-conscious consumers. Native Indian cows have ever lived happily and healthily in the country's physical and human environments and rendered yeoman service to the country's economy

not only by their milk output, but also by their invaluable aid in ploughing, transportation and several other agrarian operations –- all with the least demands on maintenance and investment.Due of slaughtering of them everyday at the rate of 12 per minute only 33 native breeds have survived now, as against a diverse range of 70 breeds a few years ago. A host of cow products are being manufactured and related training is being given at various centers – Scientific research is being carried out in regard to applications of cow products, including medicines for various diseases• Cow Therapy Centers (GoChikitsa Kendra) have been opened at Hosanagara, Mysore, Bangalore and South Kanara to treat serious diseases like cancer and TB, and these Centers have reported encouraging success rates.• Right knowledge on the use of cow manure is being imparted at various centers, • Raise in demand for cow products, particularly cow pharmaceuticalsABOUT
