The Gomaya lamps made by Cow Entrepreneurs and Cow owners will save the environment by providing eco-friendly alternative to chemical based Chinese lights. Last year Crores of Cow dung Deepak, lamps were manufactured across India. Rashtriya Kamdhenu Aayog provided training along with many Volunteer organizations across India. This gave rise to large number of Cow dung based Start Ups. This time the campaign is committed to take the initiative to higher levels. Cow Entrepreneurs across India will get benefitted by this campaign. This Eco friendly campaign will also help Gaushalas to become Self Sustainable. This will empower Prime Minister’s vision of ‘StartUp India’, ‘Aatmnirbhar Bharat’ too.
Dr. Vallabhbhai Kathiria told that we have generated interest of farmers, unemployed, Self Help Groups, Youth and Women entrepreneurs in Cow dung based Start Ups through various National campaigns. Result is visible through so many Start Ups of Panchgavya products.
