Narendra Kumar Meets Bihar Deputy CM to Propose Formation of Gau Seva Aayog

Narendra Kumar, Founder of Rashtriya Gau Sevak Sangh (RGSS), met Shri Vijay Kumar Sinha, Bihar Deputy CM, yesterday to support animal welfare and rural development. He formally proposed the formation of a Gau Seva Aayog in the state.

The meeting took place in Patna yesterday. In the meeting for the establishment of Gau Seva Aayog in Bihar, Narendra Kumar represented the Rashtriya Gau Sevak Sangh, where he submitted a proposal to establish a Cow Protection Commission (Gau Seva Aayog), focused on cow protection, care, and genetic enhancement of Indian cow breeds.

This initiative appears to be inspired by gau-centric models in states such as Uttar Pradesh, which have successfully implemented cattle welfare commissions, benefiting more than 1.5 lakh animals.

The agenda of the meeting is the urgent need for a state-level body to address cattle welfare, stray animal management, and rural support system implementation of reproducible models that revolve around livestock care and economic empowerment of rural folks. The intent is to develop a policy framework to rehabilitate stray cattle seeking shelter, increase milk productivity, and improve livelihoods in over 40 districts of Bihar.

The Hon'ble Deputy CM, Shri Vijay Kumar Sinha, is expected to evaluate the proposal for Gau Seva Aayog formation in Bihar. In addition to this, he may address potential issues impacting both rural households and the broader agricultural ecosystem, as mentioned in the proposal.

Narendra Kumar, who also leads several initiatives under Hindrise Social Welfare Foundation, highlighted in the meeting that the NGO currently supports the welfare of over 500 indigenous cows and encourages eco-friendly practices for dairy farmers.

"We hope that the proposed Gau Seva Aayog will structure cow welfare and uplift millions of rural families whose Livelihoods are directly related to livestock. It will contribute to strengthening the pillar of self-reliant Bihar," Narendra Kumar said.

Expected benefits of the proposed Gau Seva Aayog It includes: 1. Statewide Infrastructure Setup for Cattle Care & Protection 2. Modernization of Existing Cattle Care Facilities 3. Development of 1000+ Mobile Veterinary Units to Serve Remote Areas 4. Establishment of Gaushalas Across all Districts 5.

Encouraging Zero-Budget Natural Farming Models 9. Convergence with Schemes like Mukhyamantri Pashudhan Yojana, Rashtriya Gokul Mission, and Animal Husbandry Infrastructure Development Fund 10. Funding for Research in Breed Genetics and Disease Prevention & Control 11. Establishment of a Gau Vigyan Kendra for Training and Innovation 12. Creation of a State Cattle Registry and GIS Mapping 13. Allocation of Grants and CSR Funds for Cattle Welfare 14. Reduction of Stray Cattle-related Accidents and Crop Damage 15.
