Eco-Friendly Holi: Madhav Gaushala to Burn 1.5 Lakh Cow Dung Cakes for Holika Dahan
•Madhav Gau Seva Anusandhan in Nauganwa, Bhilwara, promotes eco-friendly Holika Dahan using cow dung cakes to prevent tree cutting and protect the environment.
•The center prepares cow dung cakes, logs (Go-Kasht), and garlands for Holika Dahan, distributing them across the city and district.
•This year, the organization plans to set up Holika at over 103 locations in the city using cow dung cakes, aiming for 1.5 lakh cakes.
•The 'Vedic Holi' campaign, launched four years ago, has successfully replaced wood, plastic, and tire burning with cow dung cakes, reducing environmental damage.
•This initiative not only protects the environment but also helps the Gaushala achieve economic self-sufficiency, with products like Hawan Tikia and Go-Kasht also available.
