TTD official donates five indigenous cows to Gosamrakshanasala

TTD’s Additional Executive Officer Ch. Venkaiah Chowdary has donated five indigenous cows to the Sri Venkateswara Gosamrakshanasala, the TTD-run dairy farm in Tirupati.

While formally handing over the cattle to the dairy farm’s director Siva Kumar, he recalled the special place accorded to cows in Sanatana Dharma and appealed to the public to support the TTD’s cow protection initiatives.

The TTD’s priests performed special ‘Go Daana Puja’ to the cattle and also to the deity of Sri Venugopala Swamy at the S.V. Gosamrakshanasala.

Mr. Chowdary offered fodder to the cattle as a symbolic form of solemnising the donation. Inspecting the facility later, he enquired with the officials about fodder supply, animal healthcare and general upkeep of the dairy farm, and offered suggestions for better cow care.
