Emotions to earthquakes, Einstein waves: A govt physique’s cattle class

4 min read

ANNOUNCED within the 2019-20 interim Budget, the Rashtriya Kamdhenu Aayog lists organisation of animal husbandry “on modern and scientific lines” amongst its prime goals. Now, taking upon itself the mission “to infuse curiosity… about the importance of cows”, it has introduced an internet nationwide examination the place individuals can be examined on, amongst different issues, information of Indian cows’ “superiority” over overseas breeds, together with in displaying “emotions”; cow dung advantages, together with in guaranteeing folks had been “not affected” in the course of the Bhopal gasoline tragedy; the “link” between cow slaughter and earthquakes due to animals producing “Einsteinian Pain Waves”; and the way India grew to become a number one beef exporter below “a cow-eating leader”.
On Tuesday, the Aayog uploaded on its web site a 54-page “reference material” for the Kamdhenu Gau-Vigyan Prachar-Prasar Examination, to be held on February 25. The materials would assist candidates “get maximum awareness about Kamdhenu Gau-Vigyan”, the discover on the web site says.
The reference materials talks at size in regards to the “divinity” of the cow, mentioning the Rigveda to the Bible, including, “Her face epitomises innocence —her eyes reflect peace, her horns, royalty and her ears, intelligence. Her udders are the fountain of ambrosia in the form of milk; her tail, a stairway to the higher regions of being.”
Another part lists how the Indian “desi” cow is vastly superior to the “exotic” Jersey selection. Unlike the Indian cows which have many medicinal advantages, the reference materials says, the overseas breeds are dangerous to well being. And whereas the previous is type, heat, energetic, and hygienic, within the reference materials’s phrases, “no emotion is displayed by the latter”. It goes on to checklist all of the indigenous cattle breeds, and to elucidate what a gaushala (cow shelter) is, and the “five freedoms” it should purpose for.
A bit referred to as ‘Panchgavya and its Usefulness’ has particulars on properties and “medicinal significance” of cow dung and urine — together with combating “all blood disorders” and leprosy, as an “antiseptic, skin tonic and tooth polish”, and for “anti-radioactive and anti-thermal properties”. Calling its urine an awesome elixir and as “pious” as Gangajal, the Aayog says, “In 1984, more than 20,000 people died due to gas leak in Bhopal. People living in houses with cow dung coated walls were not affected. Even today, nuclear power centres in India and Russia use shielding dung (against) radiation.”
The ‘Cow — Environment Protection & Climate Change’ part begins by speaking about elements of the world “where people live a pre-industrial life”. “For example, Indonesian Borneo. Daily life in Borneo’s upcountry is usually pleasantly dull, as chickens scratch around, the women fan rice on mats to dry it, thunderstorms roll through, the sun dries the muddy paths, flowers riot into bloom, and it all starts over again the next day.”
‘Cow Slaughter, Catastrophes and Earthquakes — An Interrelationship’ says karma “suffered bad press under European missionaries who belittled it as ‘fate’ and ‘fatalism’, and today finds itself again in the ascendancy as the subtle and all-encompassing principle which governs man’s experiential universe in a way likened to gravity’s governance over the physical plane”. And goes on to argue, “Physicists M M Bajaj, Ibrahim and Vijayraj Singh have proposed the theory that animal slaughter and natural calamities like earthquakes have an interrelationship… The theory examines the complex role of nociceptive waves (or the waves generated by the animals on the verge of being butchered) in shearwave splitting which is related to seismic anisotropy… The daily butchering of thousands of animals continually for several years generates acoustic anisotropy due to Einsteinian Pain Waves (EPW) emitted by dying animals.”
‘Cow: An Engine of Progress and Prosperity’ says, “Reintroduction of cows can drastically change the rural landscape in India but the entire government machinery is geared towards killing and exporting cows. After Independence, it took 65 long years for Indian leaders to realise their cherished dream — to make India a world leader in beef export. This feat was achieved in year 2012 under the able leadership of a cow-eating leader.”
While Rashtriya Kamdhenu Aayog Chairman Dr Vallabhbhai Kathiria didn’t reply to e-mail or messages, a question despatched to Atul Chaturvedi, Secretary, Department of Animal Husbandry and Dairying, who’s the ex-officio vice-chairman of the the Aayog, remained unanswered.
An official, talking off the file, stated the reference materials for the deliberate examination was not accredited by the federal government. “The Rashtriya Kamdhenu Aayog is an autonomous body,” the official stated.
While asserting the structure of the Aayog in the course of the presentation of the interim Budget on February 21, 2019, then Finance Minister Piyush Goyal had stated it will search to “upscale sustainable genetic up-gradation of cow resources and to enhance production and productivity of cows”, in addition to “effective implementation of laws and welfare schemes for cows”.
While particulars aren’t out there about expenditure of the Aayog, the federal government allotted Rs 310 crore within the Union Budget 2020-21 for a ‘Rashtriya Gokul Mission’, to “conserve and develop Indigenous Breeds in a scientific and holistic manner”.
An official pegged the Rashtriya Kamdhenu Aayog’s annual price range at near Rs 1 crore, “mainly on account of salaries and office expenses”.
