गौ रक्षा से राष्ट्र रक्षा

Gau seva on Uttarakhand’s pilgrim roads and hills

Haridwar’s crowds and hill-road winters both test cattle. Local Gau Rakshak lists matter more than a plains-only NGO story.

Dehradun’s expansion, Haridwar’s yatra traffic and Rishikesh’s visitor rush leave animals on roads that do not slow down. Higher districts face winter fodder gaps. This is cow protection plus disaster-adjacent thinking when landslides cut routes.

Donate for fodder and medical kits. Register as a Gau Rakshak in your town. Environment and rural programmes — water, trees, village schools — belong here because of the hills and pilgrim roads, not as decoration.

If you came on pilgrimage and want to help, use the donate page and the helpline. If you live here, join the volunteer network. City pages below keep the work specific.

  • Yatra-road cattle rescue
  • Winter fodder for hills
  • Gau Rakshak in three gateway cities
  • Environment programmes with animal care

FAQs for Uttarakhand

Questions people ask about Uttarakhand

How do I report an injured cow in Uttarakhand?

Call or WhatsApp 99999 99999 with the landmark, road name and whether the animal can stand. A nearby Gau Rakshak is more useful than a distant office — register if you can be that person in Uttarakhand.

How do I become a Gau Rakshak in Uttarakhand?

Open the Gau Rakshak form with Uttarakhand already filled, complete verification details, and wait for orientation. Appointment is city or district wise so you cover the patch you actually live in.

Can I donate to gaushala work for Uttarakhand from another city?

Yes. Online donation packs for fodder, medical kits and monthly care fund the same national pool that supports rescue and shelter pathways. Choose a purpose on the donate page and mention Uttarakhand in your message if you wish.

Are donations for Uttarakhand eligible under 80G?

Yes. Contributions to Right Way NGO are eligible for tax benefits under Section 80G. Ask for a receipt after you donate. Call 99999 99999 if you need certificate details.
