The ministry has requested not to impose a ban and allow selling of poultry products sourced from non-infected areas.
IFP Editorial: Precaution is alright, but one has to consider the impact of such restrictions on the poultry industry and that too with sound scientific reasons also.
The minister appealed to the people of the state not to panic as the government is actively taking up all preventive measures through the state veterinary department.
The ban has been imposed in the interest of preventing escalation of the Avian Influenza (bird flu) disease in Manipur and other northeastern states.
The Centre has asked the states that are still unaffected by the bird flu to keep a vigil and to report any unusual mortality amongst birds immediately
Poultry owners have been asked not to mix outside (unknown source) live poultry birds/ducks into their stock to prevent transmission of diseases.
