These Temples Under The Muzrai Department Will Have Cow Shelters: Great Initiative

February 17: The state government has started a program to build cow shelters in temples which come under the Muzrai department. The sheters will be build in 25 of the Category A temples under the Muzrai department initially.
Kota Srinivas Poojary, the minister for Muzrai said that the shelters will be set up in ten acres of land somewhere near the temples. At the shelter, cows will be provided with fodder and medical facilities. Initially, the shelter will house 100 cows which can be expanded later. The shelters built under this program will house abandoned, sick or orphaned cattle and also conserve indigenous bovine breeds.
Mnister Poojary mentioned that the temples may be asked to utilise some of their income in operating these shelters.
Some of the first shelters will be constructed at the Kollur Mookambika temple, Mandarthi Durgaparameshwari temple, Kateel Durgaparameshwari temple, Kukke Subramanya temple etc.
