Rallies Demand Central Law and National Status for Cow with Memorandums Submitted
Hundreds of sadhus, saints, and activists held rallies in Kashi and Ujjain demanding the declaration of the cow as National Mother and the enactment of a central law banning cow slaughter. They submitted memorandums with millions of signatures to government officials, urging the creation of a dedicated ministry, stricter penalties for cattle crimes, and improved welfare measures such as cow shelters and ambulances. Organizers highlighted concerns over cattle welfare and called for a national cow-centric policy integrating agriculture, environment, and education.
