VETERINARY COUNCIL OF INDIA (VCI) MEMBER ELECTION – 2020
VOTE SUPPORT ELECT
AGENDA
Efforts for development of state of art dedicated website of the VCI as per Guidelines For Indian Government Websites, enriched with all required information regarding VCI and its scope and activities as well as live statistics dashboard for Veterinary Faculty and PG/PhD students in India.
Efforts for improved standards of Veterinary Education with syllabus review at regular intervals for betterment of veterinary education system in India.
Efforts to develop National Animal Health Policy of India focusing on the set up of network of primary animal health care services employing veterinary volunteers and simple technologies with establishment of well functional referral systems and an integrated network of specialty facilities.
Efforts will be made to outline provisions of decentralization of animal health by using private sector, with increased public expenditure on animal health care overall.
Encouraging set-up of private smaller veterinary hospitals, focusing on single specialty which could be either species wise (pet care, equine care, ruminants care etc.), or organ specialty wise (ophthalmology, obstetrics & gynecology, gastro-enterology, veterinary oncology, veterinary dental services etc.). Multi-specialty veterinary hospitals could be encouraged in metro cities on the line of medical field. Potential of creating the right patient-owner experience in such facilities can make a real difference.
Effort for increasing the network of veterinary service in the country by stressing on converting the existing veterinary dispensaries into hospitals to be manned by qualified veterinary doctors, and also creation of end service points on village cluster level, the so called ‘primary animal health care centre’.
Efforts will be made to facilitate with accreditation of the existing animal disease diagnosis laboratories as well as to promote set-up of private animal disease diagnosis laboratories/ veterinary pathology laboratories, with formulation of suitable guidelines/ regulations.
Stress will be given on taking up in a big way the preventive health measures which play a big role in keeping animals free from diseases/ disease outbreaks. This will include not only vaccines and other prophylaxis, but also adequate nutrition (with supplements), clean drinking water, and hygiene and sanitation of the animal shelters/ premises, considering our vast geographical agro-climatic diversity.
Efforts will be made to incorporate the modern technological solutions like tele-medicine and mobile app and internet-driven solutions to provide access and information in order to achieve satisfactory veterinary care.
A lot needs to be done in the area of veterinary education. Lack of trained manpower, combined with our outdated laws perpetuates inadequacies and inefficiencies. We need more Veterinary Colleges across the length and breadth of the country that deliver quality education and are affordable. Simultaneously, huge efforts are required to be made to create sufficient facilities for training and educating the veterinary field assistants/ livestock assistants/ veterinary nurses and technicians.
Strengthening of the State Veterinary Councils and implementation of Indian Veterinary Council Act, 1984 in letter and spirit.
Conducive working conditions are necessary for the expected output of full potential of the veterinarians. Hence, stress will be given for implementation of Dynamic Assured Career Progression (DACP) for all the Veterinarians working in Central/ State Governments, Autonomous Bodies/ Public sector and Universities as per the directives of Hon’ble Courts and Pay Commissions.
Efforts will be made for proper and strict regulations for Veterinary Practice in India and their uniform implementation, along with provision of effective mechanism to prevent quackery in veterinary profession.
Efforts will be made to stress on the uniformity of the conditions of veterinary services across different sectors including wildlife, local bodies, industries etc.
Stress will be given on the need to make strict provisions for regular mandatory refreshing and updating of knowledge and skills of all the veterinary professionals in their service lives. For this purpose, Veterinary Colleges and Research Institutes will be encouraged to create refreshing course/ model curriculum/ training capsules in different disciplines.
Efforts will be made to ensure parity in pay scales and service conditions to all the veterinarians working for State Governments and Government of India and implementation of Non-Practicing Allowance (NPA) to all Veterinary Graduates working in Government, Autonomous Bodies/ Public sector and Universities.
Efforts to be made for filling-up of all existing vacancies in Veterinary Colleges and Veterinary and Animal Husbandry Departments of respective State Governments to ensure quality educational standards and high professional efficiency.
Proper guidelines and regulations are required for standard practices to be followed for veterinary professional ethics, animal farm management, animal products handling and processing, animal feed formulations, veterinary drug formulations, veterinary medical stores, vaccine development and supply chain, laboratory animal handling etc.
