In Nandurbar district, Maharashtra, the culling of 140,000 chickens is underway following a bird flu outbreak. The process, expected to be completed within five days, began at Diamond poultry farm, where 11,000 chickens were culled on the first weekend. Two neighboring farms, Tasleen and Sule, along with four others within a 1-km radius, will also see their chickens culled. To facilitate this, 25 rapid response teams have been established, each comprising veterinary officers and livestock supervisors. Additionally, 6,000 eggs were destroyed due to unusual bird mortality detected during surveillance, with protocols in place for their disposal. Authorities have declared a 3-km containment zone and instructed residents to report any unusual bird deaths. Officials emphasize adherence to bio-safety protocols to prevent further spread of the disease, urging the public to remain calm and report any symptoms promptly.
