Jaipur (Rajasthan), Jan. 16 -- The Rajasthan government will honour people who adopt and take care of stray cows, on Independence Day and Republic Day, cabinet minister Pramod Jain Bhaya said on Tuesday.
"This order has been issued so that those who genuinely take care of cows stay motivated. It will also encourage others to serve stray cows," he added.
Elaborating further upon the future course of action, Bhaya told media here: "I will also urge the people who have worked for cattle conservation in the past to join us in our programme.
