Green Holi: 2,200 Quintals of Cow Dung Logs Prepared in 3 Cow Shelters for Holika Dahan

Holi bonfires can be held at 2,000 locations; 1,300 trees will be saved from being cut
Just as planting trees is important for environmental protection, saving trees is even more crucial. At Shri Pinjrapole Gaushala in Sanganer (near Jaipur), and at Shri Bheruji Maharaj Gaushala in Rampura Unti, operated by the Go Seva Parivar Samiti Bagru, cow dung logs (Gokasht) have been prepared for the past month.

For Holika Dahan, more than 2,200 quintals of cow dung logs have been prepared. This will allow Holika Dahan to take place at over 2,000 locations, and help save more than 1,300 trees from being cut.

  • Arya Samaj Adarsh Nagar has also ordered cow dung logs. City residents can easily purchase packaged logs from here as well.
