In the social construct of our country, the cow is a revered animal. Despite enjoying such an important
stature in the society, a large number of cows and other bovines across the country suffer from abuse,
neglect and abandonment. The institution of gaushalas (bovine animal shelters) has been our
most prominent response to providing care and support for these neglected bovines. However, the
management of these institutions varies across different regions of the country and despite the best
intentions; the well-being of animals is severely compromised in some cases.
The gaushala movement is synonymous with the protection of cows and other bovines of our
country. The origin of gaushalas can be traced in the Vedic period when social customs and rules
laid great emphasis on protection, preservation and development of cows and oxen. In the present
day, gaushalas are the only institutions providing care and shelter to stray, abandoned and
'unproductive' bovines. They are a significant part of the animal protection movement in India and
culturally the strongest reinforcement of our doctrine of Ahimsa
