The Rotten Organization: Indian Council of Agricultural Research 

व्यवस्था जो सड़ गई: भारतीय कृषि अनुसन्धान परिषद्

To understand the functioning of the administration of the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) an RTI application was filed with the following queries (RTI application: ICARH/R/2018/50564 dated 7-11-2018, image one):

Kindly provide the following information about the Indian Council of Agricultural Research employees either working at the headquarters or at different Institutions, centers, or offices of the Indian Council of Agricultural Research for the last ten years i.e., from January 2008 till today.
1. Number, names, designation, and place of posting of the employees who are serving at present or reemployed with the date of joining, in the last ten years i.e., from January 2008 till today, after getting or being 
a. On bail
b. in Jail
c. Convicted for one or other crime
d. Under suspended conviction
e. Found guilty of commission or omission or embezzlement in the departmental inquiry.
f. Murdered anyone either in defense or otherwise
2. The number of cases in any Court of Law where ICAR is pleading, defending, and or pending in the last ten years i.e., from January 2008 till today.
3. The number of cases in any Court of Law where ICAR pleaded, defended, and or filed, won, and lost in the last ten years i.e., from January 2008 till today.
4. The number of vigilance cases pending, decided, with the date of the decision and pendency in the last ten years i.e., from January 2008 till today.
5. Number of employees of the Indian Council of Agricultural Research found guilty of fund embezzlement, bribe, and fund misappropriation in the last ten years i.e., from January 2008 till today

In the digital era in India, the reply is amazing (Image 2 &3)
-----it is stated that in respect of point no. 1, 4 and 5 of the RTI request mentioned above, no such information is available in material form in the Vigilance Division of the Council in this regard and as such information can not be provided-----------(image 2)
---on point no. 2 & 3 of your RTI application. In this connection you are informed that the information sought is not maintained/ available in compiled form----------------as there were/ are approximately over thousands of cases pending at a given point of time---------------.

What is the Problem?
The ICAR is one of India's biggest scientific organizations, with about 5000 scientists fighting approximately thousands of cases at a given time. What is the problem, why so many litigations, why so many legalities? Why is a scientific organization so much injustice prevalent to force thousands of people to go for litigation? Is it a litigation/ law firm? Is it a union of cheaters/ in-fighters or --?
Is there any scope in the Council for Science and Research to help Indian Farmers?
Is it not treachery with the nation? Is it not the Council of Traitors?

Why is there so much mess in the Council?
Will there be any ray of hope for improvement shining soon in the Council?

To

The Honorable Union Minister of State, Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare.

Honourable Sir,

           Kindly grant a little time so that I may put proof of corruption in ICAR-Indian Veterinary Research Institute, Izatnagar, Bareilly for your kind consideration.

Sir, The Institute is engaged in unethical, non-scientific activities to risk the nation.

A.   Sir, by the auction of diseased and non-productive cows from Indian Veterinary Research Institute, the part of the Council, the following acts and rules have been violated

1.    The U.P. Prevention of Cow Slaughter Act, 1955. (U.P. Act No. 1 of 1956) and U.P. Govadh Nivaran Niyamavali, 1964.

2.    Animal Transport Act (1429/2006) and Transport of Animals, Rules, 1978

3.    The Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960.
4. The Prevention and Control of Infectious and Contagious Diseases in Animals Act, 2009   (PCICDA Act-2009)

B.    Sir, the sale of milk and milk products from Brucellosis and TB positive herd to the public without informed advisory is the violation of   Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006.

C.    Sir, by production and sale of false Mallein by Indian Veterinary Research Institute for years together leading to spread of the notifiable disease, has violated provisions under

1.          The Prevention and Control of Infectious and Contagious Diseases in Animals Act, 2009   (PCICDA Act-2009)

2.         The Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 2006

Sir, the people engaged in treachery to the nation, evading the above said Acts of the Parliament and Constitution, risking the lives of people and livestock of India are protected and supported by your kind self but the honest scientists making you acquainted with all that attracted only memos from the department. Sir, is it the justice of democracy, is it the justice of yours, or is it the justice of the law of land? Certainly not, Sir, kindly stop the injustice, you are all capable to do so.

Sir, when I write about these anti-national acts going on in the council, I got the memo saying that it is unbecoming of the government servant, so please take it as a positive note for correction, not as a complaint, it is made purely in public interest and not to benefit myself.

a. Sir, I wrote to the Director, I get no reply or response, I wrote about the prohibition of the sale of Brucella positive milk years ago, no reply, still the same scenario; I wrote about NDM E. coli in IVRI dairy, no response.

b. I wrote to DG ICAR dozens of time, no action, and no response despite two personal meetings.

c. I wrote to the secretary ICAR, instead of any action to correct the system and take suitable measures for improvement, I got the memorandum.

d. I wrote blogs to bring the truth to the surface, I got the memorandum.

e, I wrote on Facebook to acknowledge the achievements in corruption and showing the truth, I got the memorandum.

Sir, please tell me whom to write so that it should be used for the good and it should not be branded as the unbecoming of Government servant or I should die in silence; your response is earnestly awaited to abide with.

Sir, the livestock is at risk in India due to deeds of IVRI as it is:

1. Producing and selling fake diagnostics (Microccoccin instead of Mallein for years together by IVRI, Izatnagar for diagnosis of Glanders, a notifiable disease) so that disease can become endemic and spread all over India!

2. Protecting producers of substandard vaccines so that India can remain hub diseases forever (Report by Dr. Gaya Prasad, then ADG AH to protect and favour producers of substandard FMD Vaccine)!

3. Passing all the faulty vaccines so that diseases can prevail in India (by IVRI as evident in the case of FMD vaccine)!

4. Keeping the scientists working in the unsafe buildings (my email to you, two weeks ago) so that life of hundreds of the scientists can be risked!

5. Taking no action against corrupts and protecting and promoting corrupts so that whole India can sink in the darkness of corruption (my dozens of emails to you) and the Council be breeding ground of corruption! 

6. Auctioning of the diseased animals to farmers from the Premiere Veterinary Research Institute so that whole of India can be made the Capital of diseases (auction of brucellosis and TB positive cows from IVRI)!

7. Selling the Brucella and TB positive milk for public consumption so that no-one can remain healthy in India (Sale of milk of Brucellosis and TB positive cows by IVRI)!

8. Selling the fake technologies so that the Council can keep on fighting cases (Mr. Sahni's case)!

9. To let the cow progeny and other animals die from the preventable and controllable diseases like FMD, PPR, HS, brucellosis, tuberculosis and now with Super Bug NDM E. coli (5 calves died in 15 days despite the report at IVRI livestock farm, 4 suffering from brucellosis and almost 15-20% die year after year) and not taking action against anyone so that animals diseases can be bred at the Council!

10. Mocking the law of the land as

a.       By the auction of hundreds of diseased and non-productive cows, every year to farmers from Indian Veterinary Research Institute, the part of the Council, the following acts and rules have been violated

i.  The U.P. Prevention of Cow Slaughter Act, 1955. (U.P. Act No. 1 of 1956) and U.P. Govadh Nivaran Niyamavali, 1964.

ii.  Animal Transport Act (1429/2006) and Transport of Animals, Rules, 1978.

iii.The Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960

iv. The Prevention and Control of Infectious and Contagious Diseases in Animals Act, 2009

b.      Selling of milk and milk products from Brucellosis and TB positive herd to the public without informed advisory is the violation of provisions under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006.

3.         Production and sale of false Mallein by Indian Veterinary Research Institute for years together leading to spread of the notifiable disease have violated provisions under, THE PCICDA-ACT 2009 and The Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 2006.

With regards and hope that justice will be granted to livestock and livestock farmers of India.

Sincerely yours

BR Singh

Mockery of Prevention of Cow Slaughter Act and PCICDA Act-2009 by Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers' Welfare: गौ-हत्या निरोधक कानून और संक्रामक रोग प्रतिरोधक कानून (PCICDA Act) 2009 का मजाक बनाता भारतीय कृषि एवं कृषक कल्याण मंत्रालय

Mockery of Prevention of Cow Slaughter Act and PCICDA Act-2009 by Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers' Welfare

गौ-हत्या निरोधक कानून और संक्रामक रोग प्रतिरोधक कानून (PCICDA Act) 2009 का मजाक बनाता भारतीय कृषि एवं कृषक कल्याण मंत्रालय 

क्या भारत सरकार को गौरक्षा सम्बंधित कानून और संक्रामक रोग प्रतिरोधक कानून (PCICDA Act-2009) पर पुनः विचार करना चाहिए? वर्तमान परिस्थितियों जहाँ ज्यादातर सरकारी पशुपालन केंद्रों/ डेरियों पर इन कानूनों की धज्जियाँ उड़ाई जा रही हैं उससे तो यही लगता है.  डा. कीर्ति कुमार शर्मा, जो कई मिलिट्री पशु फार्मों के कमांडिंग अफसर रह चुके हैं और अभी हेमपुर फार्म में हैं, के विचार यहाँ उद्धृत हैं जो एक सरकारी वर्ग को प्रतिनिधित्व देते हैं.

Do India needs to reconsider the implementation of the Prevention of Cow slaughter Act and The Prevention and Control of Infectious and Contagious Diseases in Animals Act, of 2009? These Acts are made a mockery at most Government Livestock Farms, as a representative of many of the commanding Government officials, the thoughts of  Dr. Kirti Kumar Sharma, now in Incharge Military Farm at Hempur are cited here.

It is not only the mockery of the Prevention of Cow slaughter Acts but the sale/ auction of diseased animals suffering from Scheduled Infectious diseases including Bovine Tuberculosis, Paratuberculosis (Johne’s Disease), and Brucellosis, FMD, appears that the Institutes intentionally spread the infectious and contagious diseases to faraway places. All these acts are punishable under different sections of The Prevention and Control of Infectious and Contagious Diseases in Animals (PCICDA) Act, 2009. Further, the institutes are engaged in faulty passing of diagnostics and vaccines to control infectious and contagious diseases, that is intentionally spreading such scheduled diseases (Brucellosis, Foot and Mouth Disease, Paratuberculosis, Bovine tuberculosis, PPR, Glanders, Classical swine fever, New Castle disease/ Ranikhet Disease, Sheep and Goat pox, etc.) to each and every nook and corner of India.
Section 25 of the (PCICDA) Act, 2009 suggests resorting to euthanasia for infected animals.—If the Veterinary Officer deems it necessary that an animal, is infected with a scheduled disease, euthanasia has to be resorted to, for preventing the spread of the disease to other animals in the area or to protect public health if the disease is of zoonotic importance, he may, notwithstanding anything contained in any other law for the time being in force, by an order in writing, direct euthanasia of the animal and the carcass disposed of immediately to his satisfaction. But in No case sale of diseased animals.

Section 5 of the PCICDA Act defines the Duty of the owner to segregate infected animals. 1.     Every owner or person in charge of an animal, which he has reason to believe is infective of a scheduled disease, shall segregate such animal and have it kept in a place away from all other animals which are healthy, and take all possible steps to prevent the infected animal from coming in contact with any other animal. 2.     The owner or other person in charge of, or having control over, the animal referred to in sub-section (1) shall confine that animal and prevent it from grazing in a commonplace or drinking water from any common source including a vessel, pond, lake or river. 3.     All other infected animals shall be segregated by the Municipality, Panchayat, or other local administration. However, IVRI had neither segregated nor quarantined such animals but sold them to Farmers which could not properly understand the seriousness of the problem. This heinous act of the institute further contravened the provision under Section 11. Precautionary measures in relation to controlled areas. No person shall take out of the controlled area- a.     any animal, alive or dead, which is infected with, or reasonably suspected to have been infected with, any scheduled disease notified under sub-section (1) of section 6, b.    any kind of fodder, bedding, or other material which has come into contact with any animal infected with such disease or could, in any manner, carry the infection of the notified disease, or(c) the carcass, skin, or any other part or product of such animal. By arranging an auction of animals at the Institute in January 2016 when PPR and FMD outbreak was there in the institute, the Institute also flawed the provision of the Act under Section13 Prohibition of bringing infected animals into the market and other places. Section 23 of the Act directs a.    to keep it segregated from other apparently healthy animals, or b.    to subject it to such treatment as may be required under the circumstances. That is it is compulsory to segregate and treat the animals suffering (from scheduled diseases), however, the institute has neither segregated nor treated them despite the fact that several animals are suffering from bovine tuberculosis, brucellosis, and Paratuberculosis, and the Institute claims it to be the Mecca Madina of Veterinary Sciences in India.

Section 32 suggests penalties for violating rules under the ACT. “Any person who contravenes the provisions of this Act or obstructs the Competent Officer in performing his duties shall be guilty of an offense punishable with a fine which may extend to one thousand rupees, and in case of failure to pay the penalty with imprisonment for a term which may extend to one month; and in the case of any subsequent offense (whether under the same provision or any other provision of this Act except in case of sections 31 and 33) with a fine of two thousand rupees, or with imprisonment for a term which may extend to two months in case of non-payment of the penalty”.

Section 35 of the Act also makes the controlling officers liable for punishment for failing the Prevention of the escape of causative organisms.     In every institution, laboratory, or clinic, engaged in the manufacture, testing, or research, related to vaccines, sera, diagnostics, or chemotherapeutic drugs and aimed at the prevention or treatment of any scheduled disease, adequate precautionary measures shall be taken- a.     to ensure that the causative organism of any scheduled disease does not escape or otherwise get released; b.    to guard against any such escape or release, and c.     to warn and to protect everyone concerned in the event of any escape.

However, many Government livestock Farms are engaged in spreading diseases and sending sick, ailing, and old cows for slaughter.

     Also, it is very difficult to understand the intentions of Indian Politics and Politicians bluffing the ordinary people of India in the name of "Save the Holy Cow" or "गौरक्षा", "गौमाता" and "गौसेवा". Here is the data from two institutes under the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers' Welfare which is sufficient to show the difference between saying and doing. RTI information revealed that thousands of cows and their progeny which are sick/ diseased, physically crippled/ unfit are sold to so-called farmers. 

           Dear friends, it is time to understand the political and Government motives behind all the dogma.  If the "Holy Cow" or "गौमाता" is really Holy, Pious, and Sacred and needs (certainly) to be saved, there is an urgent need to modify the "Prevention of cow slaughter Act and make it a Central Act rather than Act of States (creating confusion) and ensure its implementation on Government Livestock Farms too.

आदरणीय महोदय आपसे मेरा लोकहित में प्रश्न है कृपया उत्तर देने की कृपा करें, 

१. सरकारी फार्मों से अंधे-काने, लंगड़े-लूले, और बीमार बछड़े भी हाथों हाथ बिक जाते हैं और किसान की गाय के स्वस्थ बछड़े भी योगी बनने को मजबूर हैं, उनका कोई ग्राहक ढूंढे भी नहीं मिलता, मिलता भी है तो गौरक्षक उसे पीट-पीट कर मार डालते हैं, ऐसा क्यों?

२. सरकारी फार्म से बूढी, बीमार, अनुत्पादक, बेकार गाय-माता खरीदने के लिए होड़ मची होती हैं बोली लगाकर खरीदने वालों में, और किसान की उत्पादक गाय कौड़ियों के भाव भी खरीदने को, गौभक्तों और गौसेवकों के डर से, कोई राजी नहीं, आखिर क्यों?

३. किसान, गौपालक, अगर अपनी स्वस्थ गाय को बेचे तो पापी बन जाता हैं और अगर सरकार अपनी बूढी और बीमार गौमाता को बेचे तो गौरक्षक, गौसंवर्धक, गौसेवक सरकार, ऐसा क्यों?

4. क्या सरकारी फार्मों पर पलने वाली गौमाता संतति पवित्र हैं और उसके खरीदार, उसके बूढी, बीमार और बेकार होने पर भी, उसकी पूजा के लिए उसे खरीदते हैं और किसान की दुधारू गाय के खरीदार कसाई हैं जो उसे सिर्फ काटने के लिए खरीदते हैं? 

यहाँ गौसंवर्धक सरकारी संस्थानों से पिछले दस वर्षों में बेचीं गई, बीमार, बूढी, और अनुत्पादक गायों के जनसूचना अधिकार से प्राप्त आंकड़े दिए गए हैं, अवश्य विचार करें. azad-azadindia.blogspot.com-2018-10-mockery-of-prevention-of-cow-slaughter.html 

My questions to learned and enlightened Honourable Sir, are:

1. Why do purchasers readily purchase, through auction, crippled, diseased, and useless males (calves and aged/ spent bulls) cattle from Government Farms but farmers or cow raisers fail to sell even healthy male calves, left to be roaming and becoming Yogi? 

2. Purchasers line up to buy aged, spent, diseased, non-productive, useless Holy cows from Government cattle farms, and farmers fail to sell their healthy and productive cows, why?

3. If a farmer sells his or her healthy and productive cows he or she becomes a sinner however if Government sells its aged, diseased, and non-productive holy cow remains Cow-protector, Cow-propagator and Cow-server, why? 

4. Do Cattle from Government Cattle farms are Pious GauMata and people purchase the aged, diseased and uneconomic Holy Cows and their Progeny to worship, and cows at Farmers' homes are non-pious, they sell for slaughter only, or vice-versa?

Here is the data of diseased, disabled, unproductive, and aged cows sold in the last 10 years from different Government Cattle Farms, think and think to search for the answer. azadindia.blogspot.com-2018-10-mockery-of-prevention-of-cow-slaughter.html 

Complaint Filed with CVC

The RTI information has revealed that from two institutes under the ICAR, IVRI, and NDRI, thousands of cows and their progeny which were sick or diseased, physically crippled, or unfit were sold to so-called farmers in the last five years. Do all those were really sold to farmers, do can farmers make any use of those sick and disabled animals, they were certainly sold to butchers for slaughter which is a clear violation of the Prevention of Cow slaughter Acts of PU and Haryana, where the Institutes are situated. Further, the act of selling the sick or diseased cow or any other animal is also a violation of the PCICDA Act 2009. I request herewith a stern inquiry and action against those responsible.

Proposal for Vaccine and Vaccination Policy for control of Animal Diseases in India/ भारत की पशु रोग नियंत्रण के लिए नई प्रस्तावित टीकाकरण नीति

Proposal for Vaccine and Vaccination Policy for Control of Animal Diseases in India

The problems of vaccines and vaccinations are complex in the livestock sector and cannot be solved without educating livestock owners, veterinarians, society and having the social and political will. For the success in controlling and eradicating vaccine-preventable diseases involvement of whole society is must, but the question, the really difficult one, is how to involve all stakeholders, how to build the confidence and hunger to succeed. In October 2018, MoS for Department of Dairying, Fisheries and Animal Husbandry under the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare called a meeting for the draft of more efficient vaccine and vaccination policy. In part, the new policy has been implemented experimentally in Haryana. However, only future may tell either the policy will be adopted or not, accepted by various state governments of not, practised by veterinarians and livestock owners or not and yield desirable results or not. The direct losses estimated based on spillover reports indicated that average annual economic losses due to HS, FMD, Brucellosis, PPR, classical swine fever were in tune of Rs. 5255 crores (2014), Rs. 20000 crores (2016), Rs. 20400 crores (2015), Rs. 2417 crores (2016), and Rs. 429 crores (2016), respectively. It indicated that farmers incur almost Rs. 50,000 crores direct loss every year due to the five fully preventable (with vaccination) diseases. The Government of India along with state government spend equally good amount of funds on vaccination and almost one lakh crore rupees are wasted every year due to our legacy to hide the disease, due to substandard vaccines, inefficient vaccination, ill-education of livestock farmers and above all the political will (https://www.researchgate.net/publication/332865437_Foot_and_Mouth_Disease_Control_Program_FMD-CP_Corruption_Syndicate_of_India; https://www.researchgate.net/publication/332103614_Indian_Disease_Disseminating_Research_Institute_IDDRI). The caucus of corruption operating at all levels starting from politicians, policymakers, sub-standard vaccine producers, quality control officers, purchasers, suppliers, vaccinators and livestock owners ends up with this huge loss in the era when we just have two and half year to fulfil the dream of doubling the farmers income.

To counter the problems the following is proposed

1.    Multivalent (bivalent, trivalent and polyvalent vaccine should be given preference over monovalent vaccines to cover more than one disease prevalent during control programmes to save money, time and other expenses and also to reduce the burden on implementing agencies (veterinarians and livestock workers).

2.     Vaccines should be purchased through global tender and producers must use seed strains of Indian origin only preferably supplied by the National Vaccine Seeds Centres (IVRI, PDFMD etc.).

3.    All the vaccine batches must be sampled as per rule by competent people like drug inspectors, and before dispatch, the samples must be coded at the level of the sampler. Coded samples should be dispatched to any of four centres (selected) for testing using scientific randomization.

4.    Vaccine quality testing must not be done by any of the vaccine seed supplier or technology provider (like the Indian Veterinary Research Institute or any other such institute involved in vaccine technology development).

5.    At the selected Centres (preferably 4 State Veterinary Universities from different regions having required facilities) following Characters of Vaccines need to be tested as per international standards, not only as per Indian Pharmacopeia, for each and every batch, needs no animals

·         Antigenic mass

·         Sterility for killed vaccine & freedom from any extraneous organism in a live vaccine

·         Innocuity (harmlessness)

·         Freedom from any non-inactivated virus or bacteria in an inactivated or live vaccine

·         Emulsion stability for oil-adjuvanted vaccine

·         Self-life

For randomly selected 5% batches (out of those passed in non-animal tests) testing in target animals (at CCS NIAH, Baghpat) for

·         Safety

·         Potency/ immunogenicity/ protection power

No Vaccine batch should be released for use without completion of the testing and it should be done within a specified period (21-30 d1ys).

6.       Implementing agencies: State animal husbandry/ veterinary services/ Animal health NGOs

7.       Sero-monitoring agencies should monitor seroconversion in the sample collected randomly (as per NIVEDI, Bengaluru protocol) by the implementing or any other independent agencies using DIVA tests. Sero-monitoring should be done at all State or Central Veterinary universities excluding those four involved in vaccine quality testing.

8.       Case/ outbreak reporting should be the responsibility of KVKs/ Farmers/ NGOs/ village panchayats etc. Reporting must be associated with a reward like promotion/ increment/ monitory support etc.

9.       Investigation of all the reported outbreak should be the responsibility of RDDL and CDDLs and all the positive cases/ virus isolates should be submitted to PDFMD (in case of FMD) and other National virus/ bacterial or pathogen seed centres for fingerprinting and monitoring antigenic variation or pathogen evolution so that Seeds used in vaccine production can be modified/ changed in time. In case of any kind of vaccine and vaccination failure investigation must be conducted at priority by the concerned RDDL/ CDDL.

10. In cases (outbreaks after vaccination) of the vaccine failure, the producer company must be made responsible to meet all the losses to farmers, expenses on vaccination, and on three consecutive failures of vaccines, the company must be debarred, blacklisted for all of its products. In the cases of Vaccine failures (outbreaks after vaccination) the head of the vaccine quality testing team for the specific batch or batches must be terminated and prosecuted and his team members must be demoted and punished.

11. In the case of vaccination failure (at the implementing agencies end/ farmers end) appropriate administrative action must be taken to ensure proper implementation of the vaccination programme(s).

12. Approval/ release of the vaccines to be used in Disease Control programmes and for animal use: All the vaccine seeds/ vaccines properly evaluated for their safety and efficacy in Indian conditions through first, second and third phase clinical trials yielding sufficient data be approved/ released for the animal use in India.

13. The chairmen and secretaries of the committees responsible for approval/ release of vaccines already in the market without any or insufficient data relating efficacy/ safety/ potency and clinical trials must be appropriately punished and put for criminal prosecution at the earliest. The members of such approving or releasing committees may also be punished appropriately.  

14. The agencies/ companies selling/ marketing unapproved vaccines and related medicines in India must be blacklisted and brought under criminal prosecution.

15. Up-gradation and strengthening of state Biologicals Production units through the provision of GMP facilities, training, new vaccine technologies and vaccine seeds free of cost at a subsidized cost to create healthy competition in the market for better quality products.
As an alternative, the vaccine producers and suppliers be given responsibility to deliver the vaccines to the end-users in required storage and use conditions, often saying the failure of cold chain at users end, and made responsible for losses to farmers in event of vaccine and vaccination failure through the accountability settlement process.

Wakeup farmers, wakeup Vets, be truthful to the Nation.

RTI information revealed that in NDRI Karnal Triovac vaccine for HS, FMD and BQ has been in use in the last 10 years. But we are not recommending it for use in Farmers, animals. moreover why IVRI is bluffing that there is no data on the multivalent vaccine. The similar vaccine is also used in all military dairy farms, LUVAS, CIRB & GLF Hissar. Why IVRI is conducting experiments on this vaccine? Why already available data on the use of FMD HS BQ vaccine can't be taken available in the same organization i.e., ICAR or why data can't be provided for analysis? There appears to be something fishy. It needs investigations; it is the mere waste of time and money.

This vaccine is in the market for decades but has never been tested for quality, safety and potency at IVRI, the only approved vaccine quality testing centre. What does this indicate? Vaccines and drugs of some big companies are never sampled and tested. It is the democracy of India. That is why we need to change the vaccine and vaccination policy.

If multivalent vaccines (Trivalent, FMD+HS+BQ or Bivalent FMD +HS) were not approved, then Punish the Producer and Seller of such vaccines for decades, forgetting how big the names are behind this heinous act to bluff the poor farmers and livestock owners of India.

If such multivalents were approved, without sufficient data (for which now IVRI is trying to generate data under a multimillion project), let those traitors be hanged for approving the vaccines without safety and efficacy data for those vaccines.

If you can't do anything be ready to be bluffed, live in hell, be cheated, be poor, and be beggars.
