Himachal passes resolution to declare cow 'Rashtra Mata'
The Himachal Pradesh Assembly on Thursday passed a resolution to declare cow as 'Rashtra Mata (mother of the nation)'. "Cow isn't bound to any caste, creed or religion...People abandon cows when they stop giving milk, so there is a need for such a move," Congress MLA Anirudh Singh said. The Assembly is set to forward the resolution to the Centre.
