            After the detection of avian influenza virus in four villages under Krushna Prasad block of the district three days ago, the administration began mass culling of chicken to prevent the viral infection from spreading to other areas.

            As per reports, 300 chickens were segregated from the poultry farm of one Sunil Nayak of Nandaka village today.

            Earlier, on December 16, over 400 birds were culled and buried in two farms at Maluda and Patharganj villages.

            According to sources, several teams have been engaged in the culling operation carried out in a phased manner within one km radius of the affected areas at Maluda, Buda Sahi, Sana Sahi, Nua Sahi and Patharghati villages.

            Meanwhile the laboratory reports of the blood samples from the infected birds are yet to be received...
