Consider the following statements about the Rashtriya Gokul Mission : 
I. It is important for the upliftment of rural poor as majority of low producing indigenous animals are with small and marginal farmers and landless labourers. 
II. It was initiated to promote indigenous cattle and buffalo rearing and conservation in a scientific and holistic manner. 
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

Accepted Answer

Both statements about Rashtriya Gokul Mission are correct:

I. Important for upliftment of rural poor as majority of low producing indigenous animals are with small and marginal farmers: Correct. The mission targets improvement of indigenous cattle breeds, which are predominantly owned by small farmers and landless laborers. Improving these animals' productivity directly benefits the rural poor.

II. Initiated to promote indigenous cattle and buffalo rearing and conservation in scientific and holistic manner: Correct. The Rashtriya Gokul Mission was launched in 2014 to enhance productivity and genetic improvement of indigenous bovine breeds through scientific breeding, better management practices, and conservation of native germplasm.

The mission addresses both socioeconomic goals (supporting rural livelihoods) and conservation objectives (preserving indigenous breeds).
