Port Blair, March 9: The Member of Parliament, Shri. Kuldeep Rai Sharma has requested the Lt. Governor, A&N Islands to provide a Mobile Veterinary Clinic cum Operation Theatre in the Islands so that serious cases of animals/pets could be attended anywhere and operated on the spot.

In a letter addressed to the Lt. Governor, the Member of Parliament mentioned that for animals/pets are suffering from serious ailments as there is no Mobile Veterinary Clinic cum Operation Theatre facility available in the Islands. In case of a serious ailment, people have to first find a veterinary clinic and then take their animals/pets to the clinic by hiring a vehicle or cargo van, which is a very difficult task. Having a Mobile Veterinary Clinic cum Operation Theatre the animals/pets will be helpful for animals suffering from serious ailment, the MP added.
