MBMC has spent Rs 4.52 crore to sterilize 47,825 dogs in the past 18 years
At least eight suspected cases of lumpy skin disease (LSD) in calves have been reported here, sending the Mira Bhayandar Municipal Corporation (MBMC) into a tizzy as its animal husbandry department had claimed to have administered vaccines to all mother cows.
500 cattle vaccinated so far, 500 more to receive shots in coming cays for 100 % coverage
On the other hand 1,715 dog bite cases were received by the ten public health centers and a hospital run by the MBMC in 2021.
The decision was taken after MBMC’s veterinary doctor-Vikram Niratle explained to the governance and the administration about the plight of stray animals due to the non-availability of an ambulance.
