Rotary Club of Patan and Mahalaxmi Municipality, Ward No. 1, jointly organised a free rabies vaccination and sterilisation programme for community dogs to mark World Rabies Day. The National Zoonosis and Food Hygiene Research Centre, Chagal, Kathmandu, coordinated the programme.

The programme covered more than 50 dogs, supporting animal welfare and community rabies prevention.

We especially thank Rtn. Khadak S. Bisht, Coordinator of the Animal Welfare for Public Health Committee, for bringing the programme together, and committee members Rtn. Mukti N. Shrestha and Rtn. Bijaya Mallapaty. We also thank the veterinary team, Ward No. 1, volunteers, members and supporters.
