Udupi, Nov 26: Cow protection took centrestage on the last day of the Dharma Sansad organised by the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) here, with resolutions passed on a uniform ban on cattle slaughter across the country, preparation of a dossier on cow thieves, and creation of awareness on cow urine and ‘panchagavya medicine’.

Nearly 2,000 sadhus and sants from attended the three-day event.

Briefing media persons, Surendra Kumar Jain, joint general secretary of the VHP, said that though there were anti-cow slaughter laws in many States, they were being violated. The Sansad condemned cow slaughter and sale of beef in some States, including Kerala, West Bengal, Tamil Nadu and Mizoram. However, he did not mention the name of BJP ruled Goa.

He said that in order to prevent the export of cow meat, there should be strict checking at the points of export. Heavy penalties and jail sentences should be imposed on violators and their export licences cancelled, he said.

Mr. Jain claimed that it has been scientifically proved that cow urine and dung have medicinal properties that would not only help agriculture, but also the human body. Awareness should be spread on improving dairy farming and promoting cow-based agriculture , he said.

On cow vigilantism, he said the Centre had recently issued an order to the States to prepare dossiers of ‘gau rakshaks’. Instead, he said, a dossier should be prepared on cow thieves and cow smugglers. Permits issued for cattle transportation should be computerised, Mr. Jain added.

Shivamogga, Jun 30: The organic farmers' market in Shivamogga in Karnataka has seen a rise in the demand for organic fruits and vegetables in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Residents of nearby areas frequently visit the market to get fresh produce.

According to Sridhar, a farmer who sells his produce in the market, the demand for organic fruits and vegetables was very low before the coronavirus outbreak.

"I have been involved in organic farming for the last two decades but there was no real market. Since these days everyone is trying to boost their immunity, we are getting a lot of positive response from the locals," he told news agency.

Sridhar and other farmers come from villages near the city. They are authentic organic farmers under the Vikas Trust and Savayava Krishi Parivar, a federation of organic farmer's families based in Karnataka, and they promote pesticide and fertiliser free agriculture.

Gurumel Singh, who often comes to the local market said, "My family has started eating more organic fruits and vegetable now because of the pandemic. We have been told it is important to take care of our health and organic fruits and vegetables are good immunity boosters. The fruits I buy from the organic market are also much sweeter than the ones I get elsewhere."
