While the announcements sound promising, I hope the ground reality matches the claims. Many times compensation gets stuck in bureaucratic processes. Hope this time it's different.

The Gopalan Gaushala Yojana subsidy for indigenous cows is a great initiative! This will help preserve our native breeds and provide additional income to farmers. 🐄
