Nitish Kumar will inaugurate the mobile animal treatment unit.
Patna, September 9: Nitish Kumar, the Chief Minister of Bihar, is set to inaugurate the Mobile Animal Treatment Unit (MATU) and a dedicated call centre on Monday.
This initiative is aimed at providing veterinary care to pet animals in the remote villages of the state.
He will officially launch 534 MATUs from his residence, accompanied by key figures including Union Minister of Animal Husbandry, Dairy and Fisheries Lalan Singh, as well as Bihar’s Deputy Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary and Vijay Kumar Sinha, along with the state Animal Husbandry and Fisheries Minister Renu Devi.
This project is significant given that many people in Bihar rely solely on livestock such as cows, buffaloes, goats and horses for their livelihood. These farmers often face severe challenges in accessing veterinary care, especially in remote areas.
The MATUs will address this issue by bringing treatment options directly to the farmers, thereby reducing the mortality of animals due to infections and other diseases.
In addition, the state government has established a call center that will operate 24/7, allowing farmers to seek assistance for their animals whenever needed.
