<h1>Gujarat Bovine Breeding Bill Passed; Congress Seeks Cow as 'State Mother' to Enhance Protection and Support.</h1> The Congress party urged the Gujarat government to declare the cow as 'Rajya Mata' or state mother, advocating for its protection. This demand was made during a discussion on the Gujarat Bovine Breeding (Regulation) Bill, which was supported by a BJP MLA who emphasized the cow's cultural significance. The Congress leader criticized the government for allocating grazing lands to industrialists, causing cows to suffer and resort to eating waste. He called for increased grants to cow shelters and highlighted the contradiction between anti-slaughter laws and meat export revenue. The bill was passed unanimously, along with two other amendment bills.
