nary Assistant Surgeons at the beginning of the year, 2 Veterinary

charge of Veterinary Dispensaries and 1 was on Reserve duty. Three
posts of Reserve Veterinary Assistant Surgeons, 2 of Veterinary
Assistant Surgeons in charge of Itinerating Veterinary Dispensaries
and 1 of Veterinary Assistant Surgeon in charge of a Grant-in-aid
Dispensary, total six were vacant on 31st March 1940.

50. Mr. Abdul Majid N. Siddiqi continued to hold the post of
Veterinary Inspector. He was on tour for 134 days and travelled 5,471
miles by rail and 706 miles by road as against 139 days, 4,087 miles
travelled by rail and 570 miles by road in the previous year. He ins-
pected all Veterinary Dispensaries twice and visited Government
Agricultural Farm, Gaushalas, etc., on several occasions and inspected
Government Stud Bulls when required.
51. The names of:—
(1) Mr. Abdul Majid N. Siddiqi, Veterinary Inspector,
(2) Mr. K. M. Sullaiman, Veterinary Assistant Surgeon,
(3) Mr. M. S. Jayaraman, Veterinary Assistant Surgeon,
(4) H. A. Moghul, Veterinary Assistant Surgeon,
(5) Mr. A. D. Lilaramani, Veterinary Assistant Surgeon,
(6) Mr. Mahomed Bakhsh, Veterinary Assistant Surgeon,
are brought to the notice of Government for good work done during
the year.
52. There were 7 Veterinary Field Compounders on 1st April
1939 and the one vacancy which then existed was filled during the
year. The cadre therefore consisted of 8 Veterinary Field Com-
pounders at the end of the year. They attended outbreaks of Liver
Fluke, Parasitic Gastritis and Foot and Mouth diseases, treated simple
cases on tour and otherwise assisted in the work of the Veterinary Assist-
ant Surgeons. They have been extremely useful in supplementing the
work of the Veterinary Assistant Surgeons and proposals for increasing
the cadre are being submitted to Government.
53. The clerical staff performed their duties efficiently during the
year inspite of a considerable increase in the amount of work and
difficulty in filling the post of junior clerk.
Mr. Keshodas, Head Clerk, retired and was succeeded by Mr. P. J.
Mankodi, second clerk during the year under report.
V.—Expenditure.
54. The total expenditure of the Department for the year 1939-40
was Rs, 1,69,168 as compared with Rs. 1,71,274 in the preceding
year.
VI.—General Remarks.
55. Owing to shortage of Veterinary Assistant Surgeons the
intended programme of expansion of the Department could not be effect-
ed and no new Dispensary was opened during the year. With effect
from 1940-41 the minimum educational qualification required for admis.
8
sion to the Bombay Veterinary College has been raised from Matricula-
tion to Intermediate Science (B. Group). This has resulted in an un-
forseen and sudden stoppage of scholars so that the position as regards
the filling of new posts and vacancies caused by casualties is becoming
more acute and will have to be examined in all its aspects at an early
date.
As the budget provision for increasing the cadre of Veterinary Field
Compounders was not passed by Government, expansion of this service
was also rendered impossible.
56. Nineteen horses from overseas were landed at the Port of
Karachi during the year as compared with the same number in the
previous year. One pony, 2 Donkey Stallions and 595 mules were im-
ported through this port by the Army Department of the Government
of India, during the year 1939-40.
Karachi,
12th September 1940.

Director of Veterinary Services, Sind.
