UP gives more for stray cows' food than pension to elderly, widows: Govt data
With Uttar Pradesh clamping down on the slaughter of cows beyond the productive age, and oxen and bulls, most farmers simply release these animals to avoid caring for them. The result has been a sharp increase in the number of stray cattle, which often invade agricultural fields, much to the dismay of other farmers. The state’s solution to this soaring problem has been to set up more cow protection centres.

One such important business hub is the leather industry, concentrated in the city of Kanpur and nearby Unnao. In the second of a two-part series, Article14 analyses the socio-economic consequences of anti-cow slaughter laws and discriminatory policies against the leather industry in India’s most populous state.
