As the knowledge of veterinary hospital services is increasing among the veterinarians and people in the area, people are taking advantage of this service to protect animal health. The purpose of this mobile veterinary hospital is to take care of the health of dairy farmers and big animals useful for farming.

The auspicious intention of the state government to start a mobile veterinary clinic is coming true. Areas where veterinary services are not available nearby have been selected for this hospital. Each of these vans has a veterinarian and an assistant cum driver treatment services. This mobile veterinary clinic is a testament to the state government's commitment to maintaining animal health with humans.
