Gobar Bank: The Pace towards "Atmanirbhar BHARAT"
With the largest cattle population in the world, rural India has the potential to leverage huge quantities of Gobar into wealth and energy. Under 'Gobar Bank' Cattle dung waste can be tapped to create production of gobar gas, manure, vermicompost, electricity, bricks, tiles etc. and in addition different medicines, soaps, bio controllers can be made from the cow urine. The productive use of dung could support million jobs nationally for farmers to generate income from the sale of cow dung. Also, Gobar Bank will promote general cleanliness and effective solid and liquid waste management in rural India and pilot the mission of Swachh Bharat Mission. Thus, with a rejuvenated intension and appropriate policy interventions the Gobar Bank sector can be scaled up into opportunities for growth, leading to increased incomes, long term livelihoods and, of course, more Swachh villages will definitely serve its pace towards Atmanirbhar Bharat.
