To curb the spread of lumpy skin disease in cattle, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has decided to screen every tabela (stable) and gau shala (cow shelter) in the city and inspect every animal.
There are around 20 cow shelters and more than 1,500 tabelas in the city. A team comprising BMC doctors, an official of the insecticide department and a veterinary doctor will visit tabelas and cow shelters,” said K L Pathan, head of BMC’s animal husbandry department.
