RAWALPINDI:
The Punjab authorities have warned the general public against hiring unskilled butchers who ruin the meat of sacrificial animals besides harming their hides while carrying out the slaughtering process.
An advisory note issued by the Department of Livestock and Dairy Development of the Punjab, asked people to hire the services of skilled butchers to avoid any damages to the hides, which carry economic significance.
The department has been offering free-of-cost check-up services for verifying the health of sacrificial animals at special pickets erected for the purpose.
In addition to the fixed points, the department has also arranged mobile dispensaries for extending medical and fumigation services for sacrificial animals.
The department has made elaborate arrangements by establishing help centres to check the health of the animals including tests for female animals.
The authorities have also made arrangements at entry points of various cities for anti-tick fumigation of the sacrificial animals.
