Noida Orders New Shelters to Curb Stray Cattle Issues
Imagine lots of cows and buffaloes wandering around Noida, causing traffic jams!
The city officials decided to do something about it.
They visited a cow shelter where they keep these animals and told the people in charge to make sure the animals don't get out on the roads.
They're also building more space in the shelter for the cows.
The officials also ordered fixes for broken things in the shelter, like the gate and the roof.
One person even got in trouble for not showing up to work.
The goal is to keep the roads safe from wandering animals.
Noida Authority is taking action to prevent stray cattle on roads.
Officials inspected a cow shelter in Sector 135 and issued directives.
Two additional sheds will be built to accommodate more cows.
Damaged infrastructure at the shelter will be repaired.
An assistant project engineer faced disciplinary action for absence.
