MP CM Yadav announces credit cards, financial aid for cow keepers
Bhopal, Nov 2: The Madhya Pradesh government will provide credit cards to those rearing cows and their progeny, similar to those available to farmers, to help manage the upkeep of cattle, Chief Minister Mohan Yadav announced on Saturday.
“Along with the people growing crops, credit cards will also be made available to those rearing cows and their progeny to enable them to manage expenses on their care,” Yadav said during the state-level ‘Govardhan Puja’ ceremony at Ravindra Bhawan here.
He said that people who care for more than 10 cows will be given special financial aid, adding that the state government will invest and make arrangements for rearing 5,000 to 10,000 cows under the limits of municipal Corporations.
He said that people found guilty of slaughtering cows in MP will get seven years of imprisonment.
Earlier, he took part in the Govardhan Puja at his official house.
Later in Gwalior, where he attended two such events, Yadav said the state would protect the cow and its offspring.
Ministers and MLAs across the state also participated in Govardhan Puja.
Before holding this function at the state level, the BJP government in MP had organised ‘Shastra Puja’ (worshipping of weapons) on Dussehra in a similar manner, with the CM, his ministers and MLAs across the state joining in.

Siddaramaiah slams Karnataka BJP chief BY Vijayendra, rakes up corruption issue
Bengaluru, Nov 2: Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Saturday asked state BJP chief B Y Vijayendra to have a discussion with his disgruntled party leaders before challenging him to a debate.
As a war of words erupted between the two over Congress' pre-poll guarantees taking a toll on its financial health, Siddaramaiah reminded Vijayendra about a BJP leader's statement that his father B S Yediyurappa became the chief minister by paying money to the BJP high command.
"Before debating with me, have a round of discussion with your own party leaders Basanagouda Patil Yatnal and Ramesh Jarakiholi," Siddaramaiah said in a post on X.
"You have given two thousand crore rupees to the BJP high command to make your revered father the chief minister..!! You gave a few more crores of rupees to make you party president..!! Your leader himself has accused that. Discuss with them first," the chief minister said in the post.
Siddaramaiah was reacting to Vijayendra's claim on X that there has been no development in the one-and-a- half years of Congress rule in Karnataka which saw only widespread corruption.
Exploitation of the downtrodden and atrocities on women have increased under the Congress government, Vijayendra alleged.
ಮಾನ್ಯ @BYVijayendra ಅವರೇ, ಪ್ರಧಾನಿ @narendramodi ಅವರ ಬದಲಿಗೆ ತಾವೇ ಬಹಿರಂಗ ಚರ್ಚೆಗೆ ಸಿದ್ಧ ಎಂದು ನೀವು ಹಾಕಿರುವ ಸವಾಲನ್ನು ಗಮನಿಸಿದೆ. ನನ್ನ ಜೊತೆ ಚರ್ಚೆ ನಡೆಸುವ ಮೊದಲು ನಿಮ್ಮದೇ ಪಕ್ಷದ ನಾಯಕರಾಗಿರುವ ಬಸನಗೌಡ ಪಾಟೀಲ್ ಯತ್ನಾಳ್ ಮತ್ತು ರಮೇಶ್ ಜಾರಕಿಹೊಳಿ ಅವರ ಜೊತೆ ಒಂದು ಸುತ್ತು ಚರ್ಚೆ ಮಾಡಿಕೊಂಡು ಬನ್ನಿ.
