Bhopal: The Madhya Pradesh government has constituted a high-level committee to control the problem of stray cattle in the state.
The state government will run a 15-day special campaign on major roads and take action to control stray cattle, an official release issued on Saturday night said.
Suggestions received for stray cattle control will also be included under the special campaign.
A committee has been formed in this regard. It will be headed by the home department's additional chief secretary (ACS) with other senior officials as its members, the release said.
