Need for veterinary service at cattle markets


Eid-ul-Azha, one of the biggest religious festivals of the Muslim community, is around the corner. People are busy purchasing their sacrificial animals. But it is a matter of regret that many heads of cattle, especially Indian ones, are infected with different sorts of diseases like anthrax. People are purchasing these infected cattle without any examination because there are no veterinary officials to check these animals at the local market. So the government should deploy sufficient number of veterinarians in the local markets on an emergency basis. If necessary, a little amount of money can be charged for checking the cattle as life is more valuable than money.
