Jabalpur Varsity Denies Fund Misuse in Panchgavya Research
A university in Jabalpur, India, is in trouble because some people say they spent money in a wrong way.
The university was doing research on special cow products called Panchgavya, which some believe can help treat serious illnesses.

The university says they did nothing wrong and followed all the rules.
A special team is looking into this to find out what really happened.
