The District Veterinary Office Churachandpur has conducted the first round of Foot and Mouth Disease Control Programme at Mata and Thingkangphai village with a good number of cows, pigs and goats administered vaccine to prevent the cattle from catching the highly contagious disease.
A team of veterinary officials led by Jt Director, District Veterinary Office Dr L Arun Kumar Singh, visited the two villages yesterday and today to carry out the vaccination programme.
The vaccinated cattles were tagged on the ears to easily segregate them from the others.
The Department will continue the exercise at various localities within the district in the coming days, and will also keep track of the cattle until the second round of vaccination which will be carried out after 6 months.
