Dr. Kathiria said we need to educate the youth about agriculture, Health, Social, Economic and Environmental importance of our Indigenous Cows. Now the Government has started to explore the Potentials of Cows and Panchgavya. There is need to bring forth the Science related to Indigenous Cows and our Education system should provide platform as well as push in Research on benefits mentioned about Cows with modern scientific and process oriented approach.
Minister of State for Education, Govt of India, Shri Sanjay Dhotre applauded the initiative of Kamdhenu Chair. He told that we were enriched by many benefits of Cows in our society but under the influence of foreign rulers we forgot it. He stressed that time has come and we will support this initiative. I am sure that the few Colleges and Universities will start the Kamdhenu chair then others will follow. Research and practical implementation in form of products needs to be showcased, established economically and presented with accurate scientific data in time bound way. Shri Dhotre praised the efforts and leadership of Dr. Vallabhbhai Kathiria for this historic initiative.
