April 23 : Farmers getting cheated: Subash Palikar
 

Ramachandrapur Math(Hosanagar), April. 23-
Farmers have been continuously cheated in the name of chemical and organic farming and the amount of cheating cases in the organic farming is doubled than chemical farming, zero capital farming assertor Subash Palikar has said.
He was speaking after receiving the 'shresta Gopal Gourav' (great cowherd) award by the Raghaveshwar Swamiji here on Monday.
Nature is truth and truth is religion. The cow protection campaign running by the seer is moving towards nature with truth and religion, he added.
He dedicated the award to the 'Gou mathe'(cow mother). Cow is a boon given by the nature to the human beings. Cattle is the farmer's livelihood. But, unable to understand this truth, farmers have been cheated in the name of chemical and organic farming, he lamented.
Dersi, H. F breed cattle could not be considered as cows and if at all we called them as cows that is nothing but our foolishness, he asserted.
Speaking on the occasion former minister, Congress leader D B Chandre Gowda said, in our society, taking up the work of grazing the cows is once considered as insult. That is why we were moving towards technical knowledge like IT, BT which will ultimately destroys our spirit, he added.

Lauding the swamiji for taking up the initiative of protection of cows he said,
Adding, cattle breed protection and development could not only be achieved by enacting law, instead, it could be achieved by creating awareness among public.
Prior to this, scores of swamijis including Athani Abhayananda swamiji, Vrandavan Mohandas Maharaj, Belgaum Krishnananda swamiji presented their papers on the subject. Swamijis, devotees in large numbers across the
country were present on the occasion.
