"I proposed the chief minister Naveen Patnaik to set up a separate veterinary university in the state so that we can improve research on various subjects of veterinary sciences. It would also help in improving services," said Narayan Mohanty, president of the VCI. "The proposal is under active consideration of the state government," he said during the three-day Veterinary Pathology Congress-2013 kicked off here on Thursday.
"Lack of funds and poor infrastructure in both research and service sectors are main reasons for unsatisfactory growth in veterinary sciences," Mohanty added. Thirteen states have separate veterinary universities.
Mohanty also said the VCI has been contemplating to have uniform in all veterinary colleges across India and customize it according the local needs.
Health minister and veterinarian Damodar Rout said, "The job of a veterinarian is most difficult as he cannot take the version of the patient. The meet will help develop advanced technological support and facilities in the Odisha University of Agriculture and Technology."
