Gujarat Gaushala

A gaushala has been set up a Covid care Centre at Tetoda village of Banaskantha district of North Gujarat where Covid-19 patients are being treated using Ayurvedic medicines made from cow milk and urine as well as allopathy.

Called the Vedalakshana Panchgavya Ayurved Covid isolation Centre is currently treating seven Covid-19 patients from the village in Deesa taluka. Explaining the types of Ayurvedic medicines administered to patients at their Centre, Mohan Jadhav, a trustee of Banaskantha wing of Godham Mahatirth Pathmeda said that the Centre is giving treatment to mild Covid-19 patients using eight Ayurvedic medicines prepared from cow milk, ghee and urine.

He said that these patients had come with Covid-19 positive reports from the pathological laboratory. The Centre has been set up Rajaram Gaushala Ashram which is a branch of Pathmeda.

Jadhav said the Centre is primarily using Panchgavya Ayurved therapy to treat patients having Covid-19 symptoms. The Centre is using ‘Gau tirth’ which is made from urine of desi cows and other herbs. In the Centre, there is a treatment for cough using cow urine based medicine and also have an immunity booster ‘chawanprash’ which is made from cow milk.

The treatment at the isolation Centre is free of cost and provides the service of two Ayurvedic doctors and two MBBS doctors who administer allopathic medicines to anyone who would need it.

Earlier this month, Gujarat government has permitted local villages to set up Covid care Centres for isolating and treating villagers with Covid-19 symptoms. Over 10,320 Covid care centres having 1.2 lakh beds have already been set up across the state. The highest number of such Covid-19 centres are in Banaskantha where 897 centre with 6,400 beds have been set up.

Anand Patel, District Collector of Banaskantha said asymptomatic Covid-19 patients needed to be isolated from their families in villages and so such Covid care centres have been created. He said in rural areas, people do not have separate facilities for home isolation and the centre is trying to prevent family bunching of covid patients.

Surprisingly, this is not the first time that cow urine has been used as a medicine to cure Covid-19. Last year, a cow urine consumption programme was organised in north Kolkata with a believe that it will protect people from coronavirus or cure them in case they have already been infected.

Recently, Surendra Singh, the MLA from Bairia in Ballia district, had called on people to drink ‘gaumutra’ to defeat Covid-19. In the video which has since gone viral, Singh demonstrated how exactly the cow urine should be taken in a ‘demonstration.’ Singh claimed that the secret to his good health, despite working for 18 hours a day for the people, was cow urine.

Ahead of Delhi Elections, Arvind Kejriwal launches Revdi Par Charcha campaign to seek feedback on freebies

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Friday launched a campaign with a tagline Revdi Par Charcha to seek public feedback on freebies. The campaign comes ahead of the assembly elections, which is scheduled to be held in February.

Former Chief Minister and AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal launched the campaign with his colleagues at the party office, saying while the opposition calls freebies as revdi, the party calls it services. This campaign will start on November 25 and will continue for 15 days until December 10, discussing the issues with common man.

Notably, the opposition has been targeting the AAP for providing free electricity, water and free public buses for women among other facilities. However, AAP feels freebies help citizens live a life of dignity.

Gopal Rai, AAP’s Delhi unit chief, said that so far, politicians used to enjoy the facilities, while citizens paid taxes. He continued that Arvind Kejriwal’s government decided that the people should also get the facilities like the politicians, adding the BJP called their attempt revdis. He said that AAP is launching the ‘Revdi Par Charcha’ campaign to discuss with the people in the city if the government should provide the facilities or not.

Launching the campaign, Arvind Kejriwal said 65,000 meetings will be held across Delhi at micro levels by the AAP leaders and workers. He said that AAP has six revdis for the people of Delhi. Mentioning that the Prime Minister and BJP have said several times that Kejriwal is providing freebies to the people that should be stopped, the former Chief Minister said that now people will now tell them if they want these six freebies.  He further concluded that if the BJP is elected here, they will stop these services immediately.

While listing the six services, the AAP national convenor said that Delhi is getting free electricity round the clock. He added that there was a time when Delhi used to see power cuts for 8-10 hours, but AAP ensured that the situation changed. He also noted that his party is providing free water, free pilgrimage to senior citizens, free bus rides to women, free world-class education and free medicine and treatments. Additionally, the pamphlet launched by Arvind Kejriwal also listed that soon the women in Delhi will get Rs 1,000 per month as well, later termed as the seventh revdi by the former Chief Minister.

Reports said that the paper will be circulated across the national capital. The paper also reads that if the reader feels they are getting huge water bills, they should not pay it. It mentioned that AAP will waive all water bills once Arvind Kejriwal is re-elected.

Rahul Gandhi says air pollution in North India a national emergency, tourism declining, global reputation crumbling

“We need a collective national response, not political blame games,” the Congress leader said on his X handle.

Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi on Friday said the air pollution in North India is a national emergency that needs a collective national response and not a political blame game. The Congress leader added that due to air pollution tourism is declining and “our global reputation is crumbling”.

It is a public health crisis that is stealing children’s future and suffocating the elderly, Gandhi said, adding an environmental and economic disaster that is ruining countless lives.

“As Parliament meets in a few days, MPs will all be reminded of the crisis by our irritated eyes and sore throats. It is our responsibility to come together and discuss how India can end this crisis once and for all,” the Leader of the Opposition in Lok Sabha said.

The former Congress chief said the poorest “among us suffer the most”, unable to escape the toxic air surrounding them. Families are gasping for clean air, children are falling sick, and millions of lives are being cut short, he added.

The Rae Bareli MP noted that the pollution cloud covers hundreds of kilometres. He said cleaning it up will require major changes and decisive action from governments, companies, experts, and citizens.

“We need a collective national response, not political blame games,” the Congress leader said on his X handle.

Gandhi also shared a video on a social media platform where he discussed the capital’s air pollution with environmentalist expert Vimalendu Jha. In the video, the Congress leader said he has been facing eye-burning and breathing issues and how the last week in Delhi has been terrible.

He said, “I tell my mother to leave town this month.” Jha explains to Gandhi that the sources of air pollution in Delhi are episodic and perennial. Episodic sources are firecrackers and stubble burning, which affect the month of November. “Vehicular contributes 50 per cent of Delhi’s pollution and construction-related roadside dust is another 30 per cent,” Jha said.

The Air Quality Index in Delhi has been severe since November 16, making it five consecutive days till Wednesday. On November 15, the average AQI was 396 (very poor).
