Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Dinesh Shahra, Founder of DSF, said "The cow is not merely an animal, but a sacred gift that supports us nutritionally, ecologically, and economically. Protecting her is not just tradition--it is timeless Sanatan wisdom."
The gathering also witnessed the gracious presence of Mrs. Meera Rajda (DSF Mentor), Dr. Krishnamurthy of Kamadugha Trust, and other dignitaries who echoed the spirit of the initiative.
Shankaracharya Raghaveshwara Bharati Ji commended the efforts of DSF and remarked, "Dr. Dinesh Shahra and his foundation are engaged in punya karya--nurturing the roots of Bharat through gau seva and sustainable living. These are true offerings to society, our culture, and the divine."
Dr. Shahra reiterated the Foundation's deep-rooted commitment to education, women's empowerment, ecological preservation, and the revival of indigenous practices--all aligned with the blessings of Shankaracharya Ji and rooted in the spirit of Sanatan Dharma.
