KAVREPALANCHOK: Kavre-based Veterinary Hospital and Livestock Service Centre has decided to keep checkpoints in three different areas after bird flu was confirmed in the federal capital and other adjoining districts.
According to the Centre’s chief, Dr Mogal Prasad Shah, the Centre has decided to place bird flu epidemic checkpoints at Mangaltar, Sanga and Nala areas in an attempt to prevent an outbreak of bird flu in the district.
Checkpoints would be set up along with the police office and would run under the leadership of livestock service section chief, he added.
Nepal Veterinary Association would allow the entrance of birds to the district only after examining health certificates of the birds being imported.
Dr Shah further informed that the Centre has already sent circulars to local levels for this. “We are making preparations to initiate checking at the points from today.”
