Police officials will be responsible for giving the cow food and water, the farmers said. The animal was seen tied to a small pole in the police station with water and grass placed before it. “The present government considers itself as a government of cow worshippers. We have brought the sacred animal as a symbol because it is considered pure and pious, and its presence might be helpful in putting some sense in the government,” one of the protesting farmers said.
