Faculty in AHE & VPB dept. to be increased.
Qualification required for proposed Asst. Hospital Supdt. being B.V.Sc & AH, will be
flouting the UGC/ICAR prescribed norms. Asst. Hospital Supdt. qualifications shall
be Post Graduation Degree in concern subject as the entry level post into
University.
Minor changes have been suggested in AGB, Biochemistry, Medicine, and Animal
Nutrition Course.
Under Regulation 1:- The proposal is to specify that the regulations are for 60
annual admissions.
Under Regulation 2(m):- The proposed amendment has omitted the teaching
experience of faculty in related institutions like all Colleges of Agriculture having
Animal Husbandry instructions, Schools of Bio Medical Sciences and Research
Institutions not necessarily recognized or required to be recognised by the
Veterinary Council of India. This will adversely affect the reciprocity and other
important Academic Institutions.
Under Regulation 2(o):- The amendment proposed is detrimental to obtain clinical
practice in good quality private institutions which are available now in country, which
needs to be encouraged.
Under Part II Regulation 3:- As already stated the proposed one year internship is
quite unnecessary and if insisted upon, the academic programme may be
compressed from four and half to four years.
Under Regulation 5(2):- The proposal to have the livestock farm complex only under
a Professor with specialization in livestock production management is not practically
implementable as the Professors from LPM and suitable to perform the role from
closely associated disciplines also need to be sourced.
Under Part III Regulation 6:- The most dangerous amendment proposed this time is
to restrict the age for student entry for BVSc.&AH programme is 25 years for
general category and 30 years for SC/ST/OBC category. In most countries in the
world, there is no prescribed upper age limit to undergo a period of professional
training for medicine, engineering, law, etc. since any person having the prescribed
minimum qualification is eligible to undergo the programme of study at any stage in
his life.
Under Regulation 7(iii):- The allowed relaxation for Scheduled Caste/Scheduled
Tribe candidates in the qualifying examination has been reduced from 10% to 5%
which is not explained by sufficient reasoning.

Under Regulation 7(vi):- It is not explained why a statutory power vested with the
Veterinary Council of India is now surrendered to Government of India whereas the
bilateral exchange programme as of now is conducted under the ICAR guidelines
and is operating very well.
Under Regulation 7 (vii):- The logic excluding private Veterinary Colleges for All
India allocation is not clear as private colleges require VCI’s recognition, a condition
can be imposed upon them to admit 15% of their students from the All India rank list
published by Veterinary Council of India and this can be a pre-condition for
recognising such private Colleges.
Under Regulation 8(3)(1):- There is no logic in denying transfer from private
veterinary colleges to other private veterinary colleges or Government Veterinary
Colleges to private Veterinary colleges, etc. within the same University or between
different Universities if the migration rules of the University so permits.
Under Part V – 9 (2) (n) (ii):The provision for internship in a different State
needs to be thoroughly discussed as seamless opportunity needs to be offered
between VCs of Agriculture/Veterinary Universities and unless the training calendar
is properly oriented the management of out of State internship will be proved to be
very cumbersome.
Under Regulation 9 (2) (n) (iii):- Similarly, in the six attachments VCI / wild life
centre, etc. will also prove to be very difficult to coordinate unless the Government
of India is able to shortlist the list of qualifying institutions and advice.
Under Regulation 9 (2) (n) (vi):-It will be very difficult for the University to provide
interest free loan, etc. to the internship students without adequate State
Government support. It may be unfair for the VCI to ask for such loans without
ensuring that Government of India would support such loans through NABARD
etc….
The comprehensive examination of core competence which was an integral part of
the existing curriculum has been deleted which could have serious detrimental
effects in the comprehensive evaluation of a veterinary graduate prior to his
commencement of clinical practice.
IT is not necessary to restrict the internal examination duration to one hour as this
needs to be decided by the concerned University.
There is no justification for insisting upon a Dean of a Veterinary College or Head of
the Department to be a person with basic veterinary qualification only as highly
qualified professionals from non-veterinary background who is a qualified
researcher in Animal or Livestock Science to head a faculty or being an Officer of

the basis of an application and prescribed fee in the interest of full transparency.
Certain suggestions in the course curriculum of VPB, LPT, VSR, Biochemistry, VGO,
and VMD.
Suggested to include problem based learning in veterinary curriculum.
Under Part IV Regulation 5(2)(a):- The Livestock Farm Complex shall be a separate
unit in every veterinary college (if a full-fledged livestock/animal farm does not
exist), under the independent charge of a faculty member of the rank of a Professor
with specialization in Livestock Production Management or Any Production
Subjects like LPM, AGB, ANN.
Under Part IV Regulation 7(m):- In respect of candidates belonging to the
Scheduled Castes/the Scheduled Tribes or other special category of students as
specified by the Government from time to time, marks required for admission shall
be 5% less than that prescribed for general category (45%).
Under Part IV Regulation 7(f):- Each Practical batch for a course should have
students between 25-35 only.
Under Part IV Regulation 2(i):- During the period of internship they shall be
provided accommodation/lodging and paid consolidated remuneration in the form of
internship allowance equivalent JRF by ICAR.
Under Regulation 12(1):- The required condition of attendance shall not be deemed
to have been satisfied in respect of the subject, unless the student has ordinarily
attended all the scheduled theory and practical classes; however, the minimum
requirement of attendance shall not be less than 75% of scheduled theory &
practical separately with However, additional relaxation of 10 (5%) working
days each for NCC/Co-curricular activities and medical ground with
hospitalization will be allowed.
Under Regulation 16(4):- The Credit Points earned will be zero if the GP in a subject
is less than 5.00 or in case failure in the subject (Failed students may have

Certain suggestions have been made towards department wise space and staff
requirement in AGB, Livestock Farm Complex, VGO and regarding equipments in
departments of AGB, VPP.
Minor suggestions have been made in the course content of VPT, VGO.
Laboratory animal house facility to be incorporated as common facility.
The teaching and supporting staff strength for each dept. as mentioned in existing
regulation should be followed instead of proposed strength indicated in the revised
MSVE-2015, as the strength in the proposed draft seems to be very low.
Requirement of one more UG lab. in each dept. for completion of course in a
professional year.
The Pathology course in 2nd professional year may be shifted to 3 rd professional
year.
Instructional days should be limited to 180 days excluding time spent for annual
examination and other internal examination.

staff should be proposed in the Clinical Departments for additional duties of the
health care in VCC.
Asst. Hospital Superintendent must have Masters Degree at par with Asst.
Professor.
Separate department of Vety. Physiology and Vety. Biochemistry.
Inclusion of the course of Animal Biotechnology.
Either a separate paper in third year or a unit needs to be included in the course for
Applied biochemistry..
The credit hour needs to be increased to 4+2 for the three courses i.e. General
Vety. Biochemistry, Intermediary, Metabolism and Clinical Biochemistry.
Reduce the number of exams from three internal exams on only one internal (as
half year exam).
The staff position needs to be increased to 1/1/3 or 1/2/2 for the VCP-111, 121,511
& VLD-511courses in veterinary Clinical Complex.
Inadequate space for Deptt. Vety Biochemistry. Needs to be provided more space
as the intake capacity of students is also increased.
Microscopes are required for the conduction of practical “Identification of unknown
carbohydrates” by psazone formation of Unit-I.

wise.
Under Part III(7)(iii) :- ……5% less than that prescribed for general category, it
should be 45% instead of 47.5%.
Under Part V(2):- compulsory rotating internship should continue to be of twelve
calendar months. “42 days posting at VCC of veterinary college of other State in
India with provision of rent free accommodation” will be difficult to implement
properly and usefully.
Under Part V(10):- the switch over from semester-cum-annual examination system
to annual examination system appears to be good and more practical.
Under Part 12(3):- The word “first semester” be deleted under the head

harmful use of live animals to train veterinary students and would further delay the
demand and use of humane methods.
 Under the aforesaid Regulation all the veterinary colleges must set up the following:
a. A programme to obtain cadavers ethically: One of the most important
humane methods is a programme to obtain ethically obtained bodies which
include cadavers and tissue from animals who have died of natural causes (not
deliberately slaughtered) or in accidents or have been euthanised out of
medical necessity. Establishing Willed Body Programmes or otherwise ethically
obtaining cadavers, requires working with farms, animal shelters and/or
veterinary hospitals. Preferred for both moral and educational reasons, ethically
obtained bodies can exhibit a diversity of conditions not found in healthy
animals.
b. A simulation lab for the use of computer simulations, interactive CD-ROMs,
films, charts and life-like models
 Under IV. EQUIPMENTS B- COMMON FACILITIES:- Add ‘Simulation Lab’ as No (3) in
the list. A simulation lab may have computer simulations, interactive CD-ROMs,
films, charts and life-like models.

removing item ‘recording of cardiogram of frog heart- study the effect of heat
and cold on heart” from the existing list is needed.
c. Vety. Pharmacology & Toxicology,
As in the list below, retaining items 1 to 3 from the existing list and adding items
4 to 11 in the revised list are totally unnecessary, as humane methods are
already available for the replacement of cruel and harmful use of live rat and
mice to teach pharmacology and toxicology. These items may be removed.
1. Observation cages for rats and mice
2. Small animal weighing balance
3. Electronic stimulator
4. Surgical instruments pack

certain species.
g. Deptt of Veterinary Clinical Complex,
An Animal Birth Control (ABC) & Anti Rabies Vaccination (ARV)
Programme (including sterilising and returning animals to where they were
found) could be part of the Veterinary Clinical Complex so as to help students
acquire surgical and anaesthetic skills, including atraumatic tissue handling and
increased understanding of the dog-overpopulation problem and eradication of
rabies. The following equipments may be added into the list:
1. Dog catching equipments- net/ sac
2. A vehicle to transport the dogs from village/ city to VCC and return them to
the same place
3. Food and water bowls
h. Livestock Farm Complex.
Use of certain equipments in the revised list such as debeaking
equipments, branding set, castrator for different species, are part of invasive
procedures such as debeaking, branding and castration respectively and cause
immense pain to the animal. Debeaking may be prohibited and debeaking
equipment may be removed from the list as it apparently violates the provisions
of The Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
Act, 1960. Branding may be replaced with humane method such as radio
frequency identification devices. Castration should be done only under
anaesthesia and postoperative analgesia must be ensured.
 Suggestions have been made in the course contents of theory/practical in the dept.
of Livestock Products Technology, Vety. Gynaecology, Livestock Production
Management, Veterinary Clinical Complex, Vety. Micobiology, Vety. Physiology &
Biochemistry, Vety. Pharmacology, Vety. Surgery, Vety. Anatomy (which is

Somewhere in the beginning of the MSVE, it should be mentioned that the MSVE
provides a model guideline which every institute offering B.V.Sc. & A.H. must fulfill
in the minimum.
In the selection of candidates to B.V.Sc. & A.H. degree can go for one of two
options:(i) Altogether abolish common entrance test.

(ii) Consider 50% marks from the common entrance test and 50% from the
qualifying exam (10+2 standard) in subjects as already defined.
For admission of students under VCI 15% quota, the practice of 3rd counseling be
avoided. Last date of admission for students selected in last counseling should be
fixed at a date not later than 15th of September, preferably before 31st August
The courses pertaining to fish under the subjects of LPM, VMD, and VPP should be
altogether deleted contributing some space for study of core subjects of A.H &
Vety, which is already too heavy to cope with, particularly when separate degree is
offered in the country on Fisheries (B.F.Sc.)
The course on VAN, specifically mentions the number of classes for each unit, both
in theory as well as in practical. This type of allotment of number of classes for each
unit would be difficult to follow, which is not in line with other subjects.
In the subject of AGB, the following suggestions are made:(i)
The courses on Computer Application should not be included in B.V.Sc. & A.H.
curricula, but students can self learn compute applications. The facilities that
are prescribed for computer education in AGB may be kept as proposed and
teacher of the Deptt can be In-charge of the same for helping students self
learn for which a slot could be made in the academic calendar. may be
(ii) Under Unit – 2 Practical of AGB, “Demonstration of molecular techniques” is
included, but no equipments are included. Hence, the following equipments
may be added:

p. Air cionditioner
In the proposed course in Vety. Pharmacology has 6 units in theory and 5 units in
practical. The distribution of these units for the annual examination to be conducted
in two papers (Paper I & II) does not appear proper as some units mentioned in
theory Paper I have been included in practical Paper II, instead of Practical Paper I.
In respect of Internship programme, the following suggestions are made:(i)
The schedule of activities under Compulsory Rotating Internship programme
is too complicated and rigid which will be difficult to implement in letter and
spirit and that it goes against the present concept of education where
students should get a free environment for access to information, knowledge
and skill development.
(ii) At least 5 days be prescribed for duty interchange.
(iii) Posting in any one establishment only in place of any 6 (at iii).
(iv) The practice of sending of students to outside state institute for 6 weeks be
deleted.

The eligibility for Head of the Department is being revised from Professor
having eligibility in any of the production subjects to the professor having
specialization in LPM ignoring the other production subjects like Poultry
Science, AGB and ANN.
