Baba Ramdev’s Patanjali in collaboration with the Uttarakhand government will set up a “gau dham” in the state, a “world-class” facility to “promote cow protection”, Ramdev said on Wednesday after meeting Chief Minister Trivendra Singh Rawat.

Not only cow protection, the dham will also focus on the sale of products from cow.

“We are witnessing a struggle between gau taskar (cow smugglers) and gau rakshak (cow protectors). The struggle today has become central to country’s politics. However, neither the smugglers have stopped, nor can the protectors follow a correct model towards cow protection,” The Indian Express reported Ramdev as saying.

Ramdev and the state government will also get together to promote organic farming, tourism and producing medicinal herbal plants in the state.

Ramdev and Rawat also explored the opportunities to work together in areas, including establishing herbal villages, promoting consumption of cereals, and setting up a large cowshed in the state.

Terming these areas as game-changers, Rawat said that it would bring prosperity to the state.

He added that so far, several rounds of discussions have taken place on it but nothing was conceptualised yet and the time has come to begin work on it.
