Muslim Goshala

Normally we think that only Hindu institutions take care of cows and have Goshalas. But In Rajasthan, on Jodhpur-Badmer road, one can find the board of "Muslim Goshala", which is run by an institution named "Marwar muslim education and welfare".


120 cows are fully taken care of by Mr. Mohammad Atik who manages the Goshala. They give shelter to deserted cows and give medicines to even diseased cows of neighboring villages. They have appointed Muslim Veternity doctor Sri Afatab. All the care takers are Muslims.


Suggestion of Mr. Atik : if our Government contributes 1% of taxes for cows , the problem of cow-care in India will be solved.
