Uttarakhand Protection of Cow Progeny Rules, 2011

These rules govern the management of cow progeny, including cows, bulls, and heifers, within the state of Uttarakhand. They establish a procedure for owners to report animals suffering from infectious or incurable diseases that pose a risk to human and livestock health. A veterinary officer examines the animal and, if the disease is confirmed to be incurable and causing pain, issues a certificate authorizing euthanasia. The rules also define key terms and specify that the applicant bears the cost of clinical examinations. This framework aims to prevent the spread of disease while ensuring humane treatment for suffering animals.
