Nowadays our Indian culture and respect for Gaumata is on decline day by day. Unfortunately, our mother cow is roaming in the streets. Not only that but there are sights that jar us back to harsh reality and one of those is seeing a cow eating trash in a garbage heap. Indigent cow, to satisfy her hunger, is circumstantially forced to eat trash, including plastic bags, toxic substances, chewing tobacco, sharp glasses and iron nails. Most of the time, it cuts their tongue and that results in bleeding from the mouth. But there is no other way to satisfy hunger except eating such things. If a cow eats enough plastic bags, her digestion suffers and gradually bags start collecting in her stomach causing the cattle to die of severe pain. Polymers, found in plastic are cancer causing agents and are extremely dangerous for health. Some cows are forced to live a life with pain of cancer and those who can’t bear this pain, die. It is unambiguous that it is a poor life for cows that have bestowed so many blessings on humanity. No doubt, very deplorable.

Generally it found that garbage of city in large amount is thrown away at outskirts of city. It attracts the attention of wandering cows and sometimes they collide with running vehicles on the road and are left with groaning pain on the road to die. No one is there to attend them, for medical aid or food and no one is there to take away the tears when they cry. Consumption of plastic, toxic elements and non-biodegradable items proves fatal to them and results in dangerous diseases like Cancer, hernia and swelling of the belly. There is no one whose heart will not cry on such a miserable condition of a cow but indeed the truth is that these atrocities are done on them by us. Before independence 300 slaughterhouses were in India but today their number increased to 36032.
