‘Cows In Shelters Died Natural Deaths’ Says Ajay Singh

Lucknow: Even as the controversy over the deaths of cows in shelters in Uttar Pradesh rages on, BJP MLA from Barabanki Ajay Singh said that the cows had died natural deaths. “Every animal has a life span. Cattle live up to 20 years and most of them have a life span of 12 to 13 years. Most of the cows in cow shelters have died a natural death,” he told reporters on Wednesday. About 35 cows had died last week in a cow shelter in Prayagraj due to lighting and Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath had suspended eight officials for laxity in maintenance of cow shelters. Later, 36 cows were found dead in shelters in Ayodhya and Pratapgarh. Last month, over a dozen cows allegedly starved to death in Jalalabad cow shelter. (IANS)
