AGARTALA, Nov 5 (TIWN): Chief Minister Biplab Deb on Sunday while addressing media at Agartala announced that he will start domesticating cows at CM's official residence and his whole family will consume milk from it.

"Today I am announcing that I will start domestication of cows at the CM residence along with my family and will consume its milk. This will also inspire people of Tripura to do the same and would help fight malnutrition", ANI reported.

Chief Minister Biplab Deb has also announced that 10,000 cows will be given to 5,000 families (per family 2 cows) in next two months under MUDRA Bank.

The beneficiaries will be basically poor tribals and Govt will bear the whole amounts of the interest, Chief Minister Biplab Deb has announced with aim to make Tripura independent on milk-farming.

However, how far the poor tribal people will be able to bear the expense of debt it's under question as MUDRA Bank various times causes much expenses for the poor people.

'Micro Units Development and Refinance Agency Bank is a public sector financial institution in India. It provides loans at low rates to micro-finance institutions and non-banking financial institutions which then provide credit to MSMEs. It was launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on 8 April 2015.
