Minister for Tourism R.K. Roja on Monday said that it was a welcome sign that the dairy farmers were coming forward in large numbers to utilise the services of the mobile veterinary ambulance vehicles, showing a good response to the 1962 helpline.
The Minister was flagging off a mobile veterinary ambulatory vehicle attached to the Assistant Director (Animal Husbandry) at Nagari, after performing a “gopuja” on the office premises. She said that in the last three years, the dairy farmers were competing with those in the agriculture sector in posting their success stories.
“The prime objective of the mobile clinics is to provide full assurance to the dairy farmers about security to their livestock, and attend to the emergency bovine illnesses,” she said.
