Cattle Insurance Scheme in Kerala

Cattle Insurance Scheme: In India, many poor animals are dying every day due to many reasons. In fact, in India, there are also many religious rules and regulations due to which many poor and innocent animals get killed. These poor animals don’t need to die on regular basis. So the government has started a new scheme named as Cattle Insurance Scheme. We can hope that scheme will help those poor animals to save their life. In Cattle Insurance Scheme, Kerala government will provide insurance for these animals. In foreign countries, people love animals like their family members. But in India, there are many peoples who change this scenario. Also, at many places, these animals die to lack of proper treatment or due to lack of proper care. Sometimes the owner of these animals can’t afford to invest a big amount for these animals. So they let them die. But we should love animals. By loving animals means all animals. In India, people just love cats and dogs. But this is not a proper way. Love and respect animals as they also feel everything that we people can.
