Good initiative by CM Yogi! Cow shelters need sustainable models. Using cow dung paint on govt buildings is innovative thinking 👏 Hope they implement it properly and don't let it become another paperwork exercise.

While I appreciate the focus on cow welfare, I hope equal attention is given to farmers' issues. Many are struggling with crop damage from recent storms. Relief work should be the top priority right now.

Fodder banks are a great idea! This will help small farmers during lean seasons. But government should ensure proper monitoring so benefits reach actual needy people, not just middlemen.

Providing cattle to poor families is noble, but what about veterinary care? Many rural areas lack proper animal healthcare facilities. Scheme should include vaccination and treatment support too. 🐄

Happy to see CM addressing multiple issues - from cow shelters to storm relief. But implementation is key. UP bureaucracy needs to step up its game to make these announcements reality on ground.

Cow dung paint is eco-friendly and can create employment. Hope they train women's self-help groups in this technology. Would be great for rural women empowerment and environment both!
