<h1>Alleged misappropriation of public property prompts protests and calls for inquiry over sale of government procured livestock.</h1> Allegations of misappropriation of public property, cheating and corruption arise from the sale of government procured Gir cows for the Garukhuti Agricultural Project; complaints have been filed against a minister after a published list showed sales to private individuals, including the minister's spouse. The minister justified the disposals by citing inadequate shelter infrastructure and stated the animals remain cared for, while opposition parties demand an inquiry and question the procurement, allocation and stewardship of state assets.
