Gauva Seva: Protecting and Preserving the Sacred Cow

Cows have a strong cultural, spiritual, and economic significance in India. They are cherished in tradition, earn a living through dairy farming, and contribute to sustainable agriculture. However, due to modernization, neglect, and increased commercialization, many cows are abandoned, malnourished, and mistreated.

Aryavarat Vikas Samiti/Foundation is dedicated to cow welfare and protection through its Gauva Seva campaign. We work diligently to rescue, shelter, and care for cows in distress, assuring their well-being, health, and safety in a humane setting.

The Need for Cow Welfare in India

Growing Abandonment of Cows: Many cows are let to roam the streets once they stop providing milk. These abandoned cows frequently encounter starvation, dehydration, and traffic accidents, making survival extremely tough.
Illegal Slaughter & Smuggling: Cattle smuggling and unlawful slaughter remain major issues, with cows being forcibly removed and subjected to horrific treatment.
Lack of Appropriate Veterinary Care: Stray and abandoned cows are frequently treated improperly, resulting in diseases, starvation, and injury. They require timely medical care and vaccines.
Decline in Natural Habitat and Food Sources: Urbanization and deforestation have restricted grazing habitat for cows, forcing them to forage in rubbish dumps, posing serious health risks.
Economic Distress among Farmers: Farmers who rely on cattle for agriculture and dairy production frequently experience financial difficulties, resulting in distressed sales of cows or abandonment owing to unaffordability.
