Lucknow: The Uttar Pradesh government is launching an initiative to produce ayurvedic products using 'panchgavya'. Under this scheme, cow urine-based formulations will be utilised in the treatment of 19 diseases, including diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, skin conditions, asthma, sinusitis, and anaemia.
