Support Humans and Animals Struggling Together in Uttarkashi’s Floods

Two Lives, One Cause: Support Humans and Animals Struggling Together in Uttarkashi’s Floods with Krishna Dham Gaushala

When Disaster Strikes, All Lives Suffer
On August 5, 2025, the tranquil valleys of Uttarkashi faced unimaginable devastation when a violent cloudburst unleashed flash floods and landslides across the region. In mere moments, roaring waters swept away entire villages, destroyed houses, shops, and bridges, and left families searching desperately for loved ones. Over 50 people are still missing and many more have lost their homes, livelihoods, and hope. The disaster has left deep scars on the entire community.

But humans are not the only victims. The animals of Uttarkashi—especially the rescued cows and calves at Krishna Dham Gaushala—have suffered too. With their shelters destroyed, fodder and water washed away, and medical supplies depleted, the animals face hunger, injuries, and disease.

Krishna Dham Gaushala: A Lifeline in Crisis

Krishna Dham Gaushala, long a sanctuary for animals in need, now finds itself at the heart of the disaster response. Not only is it working tirelessly to save and shelter dozens of stranded, injured cattle, but also opening its gates to the affected families—providing them with food, safe drinking water, and emergency refuge.

"In these times of despair, humans and animals alike look to us for hope. Every day, we witness the pain of lost families and helpless animals—side by side. We must help them all," shares the Gaushala team.
