Agriculture and Animal husbandry Minister Virender Kanwar said the state government had provided shelter to over 20,000 stray cattle in the past four years.
The Himachal Pradesh Gauseva Aayog had been constituted and funds were being released to construct cow sanctuaries and shelter homes in various parts of the state.
Kanwar said the check dam on a Swan river tributary in Samoor Kalan village was complete, and the reservoir created on the back stream would irrigate about 5,000 Kanal of agricultural land in five surrounding panchayats, says
