UP gives more for stray cows' food than pension to elderly, widows: Govt data
With Uttar Pradesh clamping down on the slaughter of cows beyond the productive age, and oxen and bulls, most farmers simply release these animals to avoid caring for them. The result has been a sharp increase in the number of stray cattle, which often invade agricultural fields, much to the dismay of other farmers. The state’s solution to this soaring problem has been to set up more cow protection centres.
