54 Cows donated to 5 villages of Gangotri ghat as Uttarakhand administration did’nt come to their rescue
A prominent social welfare organisation Purn Vidhya Sansthan has donated fifty four cows to the villagers of five villages of Upla Taknaur area in Uttarkashi district of Garhwal, Uttarakhand.
In view of the incessant snow and extremely chilling cold weather for continuously two months, the cows n other pets were unable to come out in the open resulting in their unfortunate deaths.
As a result the owners of these cows n buffaloes have to suffer immense financial loss n their survival is at stake. These pet animals were their main source of income on which the survival of these villagers n their families depend.
The chief of the Purn Vidhya Sansthan, Uttarkashi Parmanand Amma who was immensely moved by the aweful financial condition of these villagers, took a unique initiative of donating them 54 cows so as to enable them earn their living by selling their milk.
Parmanand Amma today under the aiges of Netala Tapasya Ashram donated 54 cows to the hapless poor villagers of Jaspur, Purali, Jhaala, and Sukhi Mukhba in Uttarkashi district.
In view of the incessant snowfall n rains for continuous two months in Gangotri valley, from where emanate several rivers, the inhabitants of several villages of this valley had to confront huge losses, financially n otherwise especially after their entire crops were fully damage due to excessive snow fall.
The local administration n the incumbent government has literally done nothing to come to their rescue n compensate them financially for the huge losses.
The Uttarkashi administration did nothing to save the lives of the pet animals which is really shocking and highly uncalled for.
Several political n social dignitories were present during this cow donation event. Prominent amongst those present were : Gopal Rawat( MLA Gangotri) as chief guest, Harish Nautiyal, Rajesh Semwal, Mohan Singh Rana, Sunil Chandra Negi, Ram Nautiyal, Dharmanand Semwal, Kameshwar, Dayanand Dabral, Manju Rana, Parvati Ramola, Hemlata n Pushpa Chouhan.
Praising the philanthropic efforts of Parma Nand Amma, Gangotri MLA Gopal Rawat said that Cow, Blood, Daughter donation are the pivotal part of Uttarakhand’s culture n tradition n everybody should follow suit as well.
