 5.4 lakh crore rupees. That's double our defence budget. 3.5 crore hectares of land which is a quarter of our cultivated land. 1.5 lakh crore litres. That's 150% of India's drinking water. Now this is just a glimpse of the resources required to create retirement homes for India's unproductive cattle. Let's see how. There are about 20 crore of these sacred animals in India. 12 crore are cows and the rest are bulls and bullocks. More females, of course, for milk production. Before the cattle-ban era, the bulls, bullocks and old unproductive cows would gradually be sold for slaughter. What happens if that's entirely off the table? Let's say a cow lives for about 8 years. It's actually closer to 14 but we should be conservative and make it 8. It is productive from the age of 2 to 6. According to the cattle senses, a little over half of the 12 crore cows that's 55% are productive or in their carving years. On average, Mataji gives birth once a year. So that's about 6.7 crore new calves a year. Half male and half female. In 8 years, which is their lifespan, there will be about 26.8 crore bulls and an equal number of cows. Only a quarter of bulls will actually be needed for agricultural work. The remaining 20.1 crore will stay idle. Of the cows, 6.7 crore will be over their milk yielding years. Now the government estimates that feeding one animal will cost about 20,000 rupees a year. So that's 5.4 lakh crore rupees a year which is actually double our defence budget. The land required to grow the feed would be at least 3.5 crore hectares which is a quarter of our sown area. That's significantly also more than the entire area of Uttar Pradesh. Now humans drink about 2 litres of water a day. Cattles consume at least 15 litres. So 27 crore cattle will need about 1.5 lakh crore litres of water a year. That is 50% more than what Indians drink in an entire calendar year. And these are only some of the costs. Land needs to be acquired for Gaushalas to be built. People are needed to look after them. All that would be on top. So can't we put our resources to better use? Like actually building this country?
