Balrampur,
29 Dec (HS): Inspired by Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's
initiative to serve cows and protect destitute cattle, a cow shelter is being
run in his name in Nepal. A cow shelter,
the Yogi Adityanath Foundation Gau Seva Samiti, operates, currently
providing shelter and care to approximately four hundred destitute and helpless
cattle. This initiative has generated significant enthusiasm among Nepal's
saints and Hindu organizations.
A
temple delegation reached Devipatan on Monday to seek the time of Chief
Minister Yogi and Devipatan Peethadhishwar Maharaj Mithleshnath Yogiji for the
inauguration of the cowshed. Cowshed operator Bharatnath Yogi in the delegation
told Hindustan Samachar representative that a team of 10 volunteers takes care
of the cattle here, while local traders and devotees are cooperating in its
operation. Proper arrangements for fodder, cleanliness and medical treatment
have been made for the cattle in the cowshed. Saint Bharatnath Yogi said that
there is also a plan to increase the capacity of the cowshed in the future, so
that more destitute cattle can get shelter.
Saints
from Nepal and foundation officials met with the head priest of the Devipatan
temple in Uttar Pradesh to formally inaugurate the cowshed. A detailed
discussion was held regarding the date and time of the inauguration. The
delegation requested Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's arrival and blessings so
that the cowshed could be inaugurated on a grand scale in Nepal. It was stated
that the date would be announced soon.
After
meeting the delegation, Mithlesh Nath Yogi, Devipatan Peethadhishwar Maharaj,
expressed his happiness over the cow service initiative launched in Nepal in
the name of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. He described it as an important
initiative to strengthen cow protection as well as the religious and cultural
ties between India and Nepal and wished for the successful organization of the
program. Dr. Narayan Nath Yogi, priest of Pir Ratan Nath Yogi Math in the Dang
region of Nepal, and other saints were also present. This cow service
initiative launched in Nepal is being seen as a new inspiration in the field of
cow protection in both countries.
