Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Sunday advocated the use of cow dung-based natural paint on government buildings, and the scaling up of the production of such paint.
Chairing a review meeting of the Animal Husbandry and Dairy Development Department, Adityanath also called for the greater use of technology, investment and innovation to strengthen the sector. He directed that concrete steps be taken to make cow protection centres self-reliant.
The Chief Minister proposed organising divisional-level competitions for indigenous cow breeds and recognising exemplary ‘Gau Ashray Sthals’. He also suggested holding competitions for organisations producing cow-based products to encourage innovation and excellence in the sector.
The Chief Minister was informed that 40,968.29 hectares of pasture land was cleared of encroachments, with 12,168.78 hectares dedicated to green fodder production.
