The National Camel Sustainability Initiative (NCSI) is being launched by India through the Ministry of Fisheries, Animal Husbandry and Dairying. The initiative aims to address the concerning decline in the camel population across the country, especially in the traditional camel-rearing regions of Rajasthan and Gujarat. With nearly 90% of India’s camels found in these two states, the program focuses on conservation, sustainable management, and livelihood support for herders to ensure the long-term survival and welfare of the species.
