Abandoning milch cows in Haryana may come at a price as a fine of ₹5,100 would be imposed on those who do so, according to Haryana Gau Seva Aayog chairman Bhani Ram Mangla.
For this purpose, a mobile application is being prepared which would reveal information about the place and district of animal on the basis of tag number, he said.
He was speaking at a function where financial assistance cheques to Gaushalas in Bhiwani district were distributed.
Mr. Mangla on Monday distributed cheques of about ₹26.50 lakh to 24 guashalas, an official release said.
According to a decision of the government, he said ‘Gau Seva Kendras’ (Cow Service Centres) would be established in villages for the safety of ‘Gauvansh’.
The government would give financial assistance for this purpose, he said. The registration of these ‘seva kendras’ would be mandatory and a committee of eminent persons would be constituted for their functioning, he said.
