GREATER NOIDA: The surveillance team of the Gautam Budh Nagar animal husbandry department has sent 29 samples, picked up from different locations, for further testing.
Though no threat or probability of bird flu has been detected in the city so far, the samples have been sent for examination as a precautionary measure. The sampling will also help determine the condition of fowls being sold through poultry farming.
Officials said that samples were collected during the first half of January and have also been taken from bird species found in Surajpur wetland as well as Okhla bird sanctuary. “We have not come across anything alarming or untoward so far. As per our preliminary findings, these birds have died due to extreme winter and protein deficiency and it is a routine exercise,” said Virendra Srivastava, chief veterinary officer of the district.
