Chief Minister Kamal Nath inaugurated the ‘Online Donation Portal’ at Mantralaya on Friday. The portal has been launched to seek cooperation from the common man for cow protection and cow conservation. Any person or commercial establishment can donate cow through this portal www.gopalanboard.mp.gov.in. Donors will get the benefit under the section 80 G of the Income tax.
