Project Title :Plans To Set Up Of Bio-CNG And Biogas Plant Project In Haryana
Company Name : Government Of Haryana
Project Detail :In a bid to ensure effective management of gaushalas (cow shelters) and make them self sustainable and economically viable, the Manohar Lal Khattar Government has planned a slew of measures including setting up of bio-CNG and biogas plant at gaushalas

Apart from implementing waste-to-energy projects aimed at making the gaushalas self reliant, the State Government is also set to open gaushalas in six more district prisons

The State Government has set up a bio-CNG plant at a gaushala in Gurugram. This is first such waste-to-energy project in Haryana and set up at a cost of about Rs 4 crore. The project will be inaugurated soon and bio-CNG will be produced from cow dung on daily basis,” said Bhani Ram Mangla, chairman of Haryana Gau Seva Aayog while talking

Besides, the government has also planned to set up biogas plants at all gaushalas in a phased manner in the state, he said

Bhani Ram Mangla also said that under Centre’s ‘GOBARDHAN’ scheme, biogas plant to generate electricity from organic waste, will be set up in one village in 22 districts each

The Centre’s ‘GOBARDHAN’scheme was launched from Karnal in April with an objective of generating bio-gas from cattle dung and assist the gram panchayats who intend to set up biogas plant in their villages

On State Government’s plans to open gaushalas in more jails, he said that we have decided to open gaushalas in six district jails soon. In May, the Chief Minister Manohar Lal had laid the foundation stone of a gaushala in district jail complex in Karnal, he added

There are more than 430 gaushalas and nandishalas in the state with strength of about 3.41 lakh cattle

At present, the gaushalas in the state are facing shortage of funds. Also, many gaushalas are either filled to capacity or overcrowded

In view of this, the State Government has also given in-principle approval for setting up of gaushalas and nandishalas by the gram panchayats on gau charan land (grazing land) for the rehabilitation of stray cattle in the state. The gram panchayats would be allowed either to utilize the land at their own level for the setting up of gaushalas and nandishalas or lease out the land to other agencies

Notably, the State Government has launched ‘Haryana Besahara Gauvansh Mukt Yojana’ to make Haryana stray cattle-free by the end of this month

Haryana was among the first states in the country to enact the Gauvansh Sanrakshan and Gausamvardhan Act in 2015, imposing a strict ban on cow slaughter apart from curtailing smuggling of cows outside the state. It provides for a rigorous imprisonment ranging from three years to ten years for cow slaughter and provides for a fine from Rs 30,000 to Rs one lakh
