Dr Vallabhbhai Kathiria speaking on the occasion said, I am delighted that more and more are corporates are evincing interest, companies see value in Panchagavya Ayurveda products and are coming forward to launch them. I appreciate the initiative of Charaka Dairy Pvt Ltd., in combining the traditional medicine systems of Ayurveda and Panchagavya with the modern technology and developing products which can be easily consumed by health-conscious patrons. This is in line with the Aatma Nirbhar Bharath initiative of the Prime Minister, they are inspiring other entrepreneurs to develop innovative techniques to popularize our traditional medicine. Rashtriya Kamdhenu Aayog was established by Prime Minister in 2019 with the objective of capitalizing on the Cow wealth or ‘Godhan’ for strengthening our rural economy and making India self-reliant in the comity of nations. This can be done by utilizing more than nineteen crore indigenous cows in India, to help solve the problems afflicting the farmers, while simultaneously making India healthy. The World was discussing about immunity when COVID 19 afflicted humanity, Panchagavya Ayurveda is the best way to raise immunity. Cow related initiatives will generate employment in rural areas, encourage entrepreneurship and develop such medicines, enable to manufacture and market them in India and abroad. Cow dung is already being used for manufacturing paper, plywood, paint. Many other products like bio-pesticides and biofuel are being prepared from cow dung and urine, the opportunities are evolving and increasing in using cow wealth. The problem is that the current generation is not sensitized about the importance of indigenous cow and its benefits. In this region we have Ongole cow, similarly other regions have other breeds, which most are not aware off. To educate and raise awareness about this wealth among children, youth and citizens on the whole, we have initiated a Kamdhenu Gau Vigyan Prachar Prasar Pratiyogita, a general knowledge online exam with multiple choice question will be held on February 25th, 21; everyone is eligible to appear in this, complete details of the exam are available on our website kamdhenu.gov.in, registration and curriculum is also available for the public. Till date people from thirty-six countries have registered for the exam and more are joining. This will raise awareness about cow and help to protect, preserve, conserve our national wealth in the form of cow. It also helps to grow entrepreneurs in cow-based industries, in fact for cottage industry there are more than 100 items which can be prepared from cow dung.
Mr M Suryanarayana Reddy said, we have launched basically two products in different forms, liquid and capsule, we also got drug license from Ayush Department. We are manufacturing these products through an innovative freeze-drying technology, while ensuring no medicinal values are lost, later it is converted into powder and is marketed in a capsule form.
Mr K Kishan Rao said, the products launched today are made from the panchagavya of desi Gir cows at Charaka Dairy at Sangareddy. These are prepared as per the traditional knowledge we gained from Ayurveda. They help develop immunity, prevent viral infections and help control lifestyle diseases like diabetes, Blood Pressure.
