Yogi Adityanath, the chief minister of Uttar Pradesh, issued directives to ensure the safety of stray cattle that were spotted loitering on state roadways. The state government stated in a statement issued on Sunday that the UP CM has given the district judges instructions to bring “destitute cattle” to the existing cow shelters and ensure their regular health checks and the provision of green fodder.
The district magistrates have also been tasked with acting urgently to protect cows.
