Bharti underscored the immediate need to expand cattle resources to meet national demand. She highlighted a key statistic: currently, there is only one cow for every seven people in the country, indicating a significant resource deficit that needs to be addressed through increased breeding and conservation efforts. She argues that linking the two policies—health and tradition—is crucial for making cow protection economically viable and widely accepted by the populace.

To directly support both cow conservation and rural income, Bharti proposed a targeted economic initiative. She suggested that women beneficiaries under the Ladli Behna Yojna should be provided with a “good cow” to substantially increase their household income. The goal is to elevate their earnings from the current ₹3,000 to between ₹8,000 and ₹10,000, utilizing dairy income as a sustainable pathway to economic empowerment for women in the region.

The focus on cow welfare and dairy production is also a priority for the state’s chief executive. Separately, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav reiterated the importance of cow worship and announced that Govardhan Puja would be celebrated across the state, emphasizing the deep agricultural and cultural connection to cows. Yadav stated that the state government is actively promoting animal husbandry to boost milk production and ensure financial benefits for farmers, aligning state efforts with the overarching goal of supporting the livestock sector.
